Please do let us know how your XO might be used now that it’s working. It’s curious to see the utility in this world of smartphones and tablets with 10 hour batteries. In 2008, who could have imagined this. That said, my idevices still do not have sunlight readable screens (thank you MLJ). </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">The longevity & repairability of the original XO continue to impress as they withstand the test of time, especially in rugged environments.

I tried with an external mouse, and that worked, but didn't fix the internal keyboard, but an external keyboard worked fine. This fit with my "loose connection" theory. So I used the document you provided to disassemble the bottom half... disconnected the cable that runs from the monitor assembly to the peripheral keyboard/touchpad logic board, and reseated it. This seems to have fixed the problem. It was a bit fiddly because I'm a bit ham fisted and those screws are really tiny, but i got it back together eventually. <div><br></div><div>Thanks again for your help.</div></div><div dir="ltr"><div> -- Mitch</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Jun 23, 2019 at 9:28 AM Nancie Severs <<a href="mailto:nanciesevers@gmail.com" target="_blank">nanciesevers@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi,</div><div><br></div><div>First I would try adding an auxiliary usb mouse.

I have an XO-1 from the g1g1 program and recently the keyboard and touchpad<br>
stopped working. When I run the diagnostics it fails on the keyboard test<br>
with this:<br>
<a href="http://mitchpatenaude.net/xo-1_problem.jpg" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://mitchpatenaude.net/xo-1_problem.jpg</a><br>
<br>
Is it likely something as simple as a loose connector? Should I crack it<br>
open and try to diagnose it?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
