<div dir="ltr">Hey everyone,<div><br></div><div style>(1) on Friday while looking at one of the XO-1s which didn't show anything on the display (even with a display which was known to work) with the serial adapter I saw the attached output.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Looking at the wiki now and given the number of "invalid system date" issues we saw on other machines I assume this is a case of the "page fault" message situation described on <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Fix_Clock#If_the_screen_does_not_turn_on">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Fix_Clock#If_the_screen_does_not_turn_on</a>. Or are there any other issues which could produce such an output?</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>(2) Mike sent me a bunch of ML 1220 batteries as replacements for the XO-1 units which showed the "invalid system date" messages. However even with the new batteries in-place, after verifying that the (old) battery holders looked okay and having set the current time on the command-line the system date reverted back to 2000-01-01 00:00:00 after every reboot (and hence the "invalid system date" message kept coming up again). Any suggestions on what to do in such a situation?</div>
