how do I check this? This is probably the source of the issue (see this comment), but I have no idea on what to do to understand the actual cause
thanks for your time and help!
okay, I think we have some news: if I kill the pc by holding the power button, after a night the battery loses 0%! so I guess the problem is that it’s not shutting down properly. I tried to sudo halt --poweroff
and it drained the battery as usual. I then tried sudo halt -f
and something strange happened: the screen immediately turned off, but the red LED on the volume key indicating that the volume is muted stayed on, so the pc wasn’t completely off. what could be the problem? and why does this happen only when I force the halt
? could it be a kernel issue?
thanks for the help and for your time!!!
I checked and yes, there’s no cmos battery in it. Do you think this may have something to do with it?
I’ll try it as soon as I can, thanks for the suggestion! I don’t think the battery is dying, because while powered on the battery life is very good
As it should be, the battery life while in use it’s even better than my own pc
The battery health is marked as 100%, which seems strange to me. However, the battery life while powered on is very good, so I don’t think the battery is old or exhausted. Do you think that changing the battery may be the solution?
As usual :|
I’ll have to check it out then, thanks for your help!
I’ll try other kernels then, but I don’t know how to check if the system is actually powered off or not without waiting 8 hours and checking the battery drain XD perhaps the
halt
could be the keythanks!! I’ll update the thread if I’ll discover something new
