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!
Maybe Intel AMT running? I’m not sure it can be disabled though.
Even if it was it shouldn’t drain the battery that fast.
