When I power it up the lights across the top (Type 6 keyboard - num Loc, Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, Compose) flash on briefly. It used to only work via a serial connection to [I believe] port A. Once it stopped working, I've gone back to trying to use a connected Sun keyboard and PC monitor via adapter. This morning, I have the cover off. When I power up the machine while holding Stop-N, I get a beep, the 4 lights flash on briefly and then off, I then hear the [CPU?] fan come up and then shut down. The power light on the front of the machine never comes on. This is the typical behavior. If I leave it plugged in [or is it plugged in and turned on?] for a while, eventually, the front power LED will light -- takes a few days, though.
