Dead Surface Go / Doesn't Turn On #1381

Open nixxxo opened 2 months ago

nixxxo commented 2 months ago

Hello, I installed Fedora using this GitHub repo; I set it up, and it worked perfectly. I left the tablet unattended for some weeks, came back, and it wouldn't turn on; I thought I would charge it. I put it into the charger, and the Windows logo was just flashing repeatedly for half a second. I started researching what I could do, but nothing helped. I left it on a charger overnight, and when I woke up, there was no flashing of the logo, but the device was turned off and non-responsive. I tried all combinations with the volume up and down keys, but nothing worked. My only indication is that when I attach the type cover and try to turn it on, sometimes the capslock light turns on for a second, but that's it. Do you have any idea what I can do to revive this device?

Environment

`dmesg` output ``` I can't run this. The tablet does not start. ```

Lists like an defective battery? You have already pressed the on/off switch for more than 10 seconds?
