I have a similar issue to some I've seen here, but not identical.
My PBP was working fine two days ago on Manjaro from eMMC, but when I booted it yesterday, I had absolutely nothing on my display.
The LED starts off red for a few seconds, then goes green. The numlock/capslock keys toggle the appropriate LEDs.
I've tried hitting ESC after a few minutes, but still nothing.
I loaded Manjaro KDE to a USB stick. When I boot with it inserted, I get activity on the stick's LED to show that it's being accessed, but still, not even a flicker on the display.
Also no luck booting from SD.
If I had to place money on it, I'd guess that the machine is booting, but the display is dead. Is there any keystroke combination that could have turned off the display? I've already tried Fn + F2 to turn up brightness.
As a followup, I opened up the case and flipped the eMMC switch away from the hinge. At that point, I got ABSOLUTELY nothing, not even the LEDs.
I switched it back and I'm now back to square 1.
