I had this problem recently with an X260. The red dot flash just
indicates that the power has just been plugged in. In my case, the
problem was that the battery was empty, and the power adapter was not
supplying power (despite being recognized as present). I had another
compatible power adapter, and plugging it in solved the problem; the
original power adapter was dead.
