Can someone please post the patch? I'd like it applied to the latest
version of Browse for F11-0.88 (and SoaS).

Why do we need to patch it? Why not get it in upstream and then it
will be in the next release.

F11-for-XO1.5 Release 10.1.1 Release Candidate 4- Hardware issue?

[Yioryos Asprobounitis]

I doubt is related to the build but just in case...
I clean installed os205 on an a working XO-1.5 (#SHC00500908).
On first boot it froze about 4sec into the boot process, I think at "loading mass storage devices" or something relevant.
On hard reboot (with power button for 5sec) the backlight blinks for a split second but the screen stays dark. The power light comes on but not the processor and wifi lights. No chime either.
Reseting the EC by battery removal, get the familiar blinks but no change in behavior.  
Is the XO-1.5 bricked?
Is there anything that I can do (replace micro-sd? make sure screen ribbon is fine? other?).
Any ideas
Thx

F11-for-XO1.5 Release 10.1.1 Release Candidate 4- Hardware issue?

[James Cameron]

Yes, that sounds like a hardware type of problem.

Suggestions for you to try ...

- try a longer time without battery or external power,

- check that the AC adaptor is plugged in, in case the battery is
  failing to provide enough current to start things up,

What model XO-1.5 is it?

I'm not familiar with that message.  Could you explain further from your
memory of the event what else was present?
> On hard reboot (with power button for 5sec) ...

I hope you didn't do this during a firmware reflashing.  That would be
bad.

How long is longer? overnight?

When I re-flash and first boot I always have AC plugged in case of a FW update or battery failure

I believe is a production machine (C2?)

On my first boot I start with the check mark pressed so I can see what's going on. So it was at the boot console.
I can not recall the exact message. Was something about mass storage devices but not quite remember. 4.x sec into the boot process. 
Did not look like the "zero dot freeze" because the camera light was not on.

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 :)

Should I be sending it back for diagnosis if everything else fails or just consider it random failure?

Double the time you previously tried, up to five minutes.  If you've
already tried more than five minutes, exclude this suggestion.

Okay, the AC is plugged in, thanks.  I wasn't aware.

Thanks.  That rings no bells for me.

os205 includes q3a39.  It is sufficient for this issue.

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.  The
power light comes on but not the processor and wifi lights.  No chime
earther."

Richard, what do you think?
