It's that trusty TuxTops box again.
Two things I've noticed in the past few days:
- Slight adjustments of the power cord cause the box to switch in and
out of battery / AC modes. This is accompanied by a high-frequency
squealing sound, and logs APM events to system logs (which I monitor
via xconsole on xrootconsole.
- The built-in keyboard appears to have cut out. I can plug in a
Happy Hacker keyboard into the side port and enter commands. On
rebooting, the system didn't respond to keypresses.
I'm inclined to pop the box open and look for any visibly loose
connectors. Not sure what the proscribed surgical techniques are, the
accompanying manual doesn't address disassembly.
Thoughts?
