i'm guessing that this is because it's dead. i've tried to fix
TVs like this before and it's just too many screws,
in addition ty honting down a new transistor or whatever...
so it's unlikely to happen.
Am at HHN, and robb just "fixed" that big TV by successfully and
completely connecting the HDMI cable that was apparently "removed" by
someone else. So the Hitachi really _wasn't_ dead after all.
Yay robb!

tonight it wasn't working because someone had stolen the cable.
when I set up that TV, I screwed the HDMI cable to the furniture specifically
so that nobody would take it, but i guess this is what happens in a hackerspace
where everyone has root.

Did anyone try turning sudo room off, waiting for 20 seconds, and
turning it back on again??

Glad the TV situation got resolved, even if the cable
wandered off. Thanks, Jake, for staying on it. Next time
I'll communicate my tidbits in a more neutral way.
I LOL'd pretty hearty at the power cycle joke. :-)
