This text replaces #22 Raymond your right it's not a fix it's a workaround the developers need to specifiy the fix. Thanks for the workaround.
So repeating my text from #22: Ran the following test: 1) Installed ethtool. 2) Ran command sudo ethtool -s eth0 wol d 3) Checked WOL: sudo ethtool eth0 | grep Wake-on [sudo] password for dave: Supports Wake-on: pumbg Wake-on: d 3) Fully charged Eny Sleekbook, powered down, waited 48hrs (2days). Test Result 4) Powered up Sleekbook on battery immediately took battery reading: http://www.divnut.com/Ubuntu/Battery_48hr_test_010212.png Measured Battery charge state: 96.3% battery depletion ~1.7% in over 2 days allowing ~1-2% for boot up on Battery. Previously this would have been 36%. The battery depletion is now respectable (same as Win7). Also tested if Wake-on: d remains following reboots – Yes it did so I did not have to edit /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/disable_wol. Also tested both current and upstream Kernels. I now presume the 'ethtool -s eth0 wol d' modifies a Kernel parameter ? @Joseph Salisbury please suggest the next step. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098697 Title: High Battery discharge rate when Laptop is off.
