Re: F11-for-XO1.5 Release 10.1.1 Release Candidate 4- Hardware issue?
I did find some time open up mine.Nothing loose, burned or otherwise strange in the macro-inspection. The microSD has the all the files and partitions and no errors (checked with an adapter in a Fedora machine). The XO-1.5 screen works fine on my XO-1. Anything else I could check, or just fight my son for the other XO-1.5? :-) --- On Mon, 7/5/10, Tiago Marques tiago...@gmail.com wrote: From: Tiago Marques tiago...@gmail.com Subject: Re: F11-for-XO1.5 Release 10.1.1 Release Candidate 4- Hardware issue? To: Yioryos Asprobounitis mavrot...@yahoo.com Cc: Devel devel@lists.laptop.org Date: Monday, July 5, 2010, 10:13 AM Hi all, My XO-1.5 B2 just entered this state last night. The only difference is that I was using it, writing e-mail, and then it rebooted itself. After that it would no longer boot so I tried to run memtest. It crashed on the second test with a random character on the right side of the screen and then it would no longer boot, the screen just flashes. Should I disassemble it to inspect it? I have some experience repairing motherboards with cold solders, bad caps, etc. Best regards,Tiago On Thu, Jul 1, 2010 at 5:03 PM, Yioryos Asprobounitis mavrot...@yahoo.com wrote: I doubt is related to the build but just in case...

I hope you didn't do this during a firmware reflashing. That would be bad. No I didn't. Actually I was surprise that was no FW update. My XO-1.5 had q3a39, but the latest is q3a41. Is os205 using q3a39? (ok, I can find that :) os205 includes q3a39. It is sufficient for this issue. Should I be sending it back for diagnosis if everything else fails or just consider it random failure? Sounds like it ... just to clarify though, the current state of the laptop is that it does not respond correctly when the power button is pressed to turn it on? backlight blinks for a split second but the screen stays dark.
