Hello! My girlfriend’s HP laptop running kubuntu 24.04 has this problem: when it’s turned off (either from the GUI or poweroff
) it discharges overnight, from 100% to 0% in a few days.
I searched the web to look for fixes:
- wake on lan is disabled in the BIOS
- USB ports have no settings in the bios, but there’s nothing connected to them anyway
- the system is actually powered off, not sleeping (at least if
poweroff
actually works) - everything, firmware included, is up to date
She doesn’t remember having this problem from the beginning, but cannot tell when this started occurring
Did any of you ever encounter this problem? I don’t know what else to do, and it’s quite annoying.
Thank you for your time!
