Oh boy.
So about a few hours after I made the post about installing Adélie Linux on the Twelve I went to reboot to reconfigure some kernel modules and it never turned on again. Figures something went wrong so I had tried the usual tricks: reset PRAM, remove expansion memory, battery, what-have-you. I even tried the super reset trick and while I got the beep it didn't go further than that.
I used to get a chime but now I don't even get that anymore.
My current suspect is actually the GPU. Before the last reboot the tty looked a little funny, and it actually crashed and I had to cut power. I don't see anything on screen, even with a bright light through the Apple logo (indicative of either 0 brightness or dead backlight). Even weirder is that Target Disk Mode is fully functional; though I don't see the FireWire icon on screen, I can plug it in to another machine and the disk pops up no issue. I hope it's *not* the GPU though because that's basically equivalent to a cooked logic board and the Twelve is perma-dead.
Any ideas on resussitation?
On a bit of a silver lining, after installing Adélie I noticed the battery started charging, which I completely dismissed outright before??
