[Gumstix-users] Powering up overo water + palo43 board

[Anthony O <ant...@ya...>]

First attempt at powering up Overo water + Palo43 combo. I plugged in usb cable, from pc to palo43 console port, I see LED light up next to it. When I plug in DC power next, I see LED on Overo board flicker for a sec.and stay off. No activity on the console. I assume the LED (D2) on the Overo is the power indicator, in which case I am wondering why it flickers. It flickers and stays off every time I plug in the DC power supply - I use a 5V adaptor which I purchased from Gumstix; no LCD connected to palo43.
 
I could not find a similar case on the mailing list, so I wonder if this is an isolated incident. In any case, what could possibly be happening with the power? I welcome suggestions regarding steps to try, what to look for etc...
