 My G1G1 XO unexpectedly went from charging just fine yesterday to barely
 charging at all today.

 Running olpc-logbat on battery, I see values of around -800000 in the
 fourth position (I think that's related to the discharge rate, right?).
 With the power plugged in, it only goes up to -600000.  It's still
 discharging!  With the laptop turned off, I'm getting about 2% / hour
 positive charge rate.

 I checked the power adapter with two multimeters: it's putting out 12.00
 volts.  Unfortunately I haven't been able to find another compatible plug
 to test with.

 The laptop will not boot with only the wall power plugged in.
