From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hello. I just want to ask, I already tried search many resources, but I still can't find a way to reduce battery drain while sleep on Ubuntu on Dell laptop.

I seen that it use S0ix, the new standard that many manufacturer use but when sleep it drains a lot battery, in just 6 hours the battery gone 0.

Any help is appreciated. This is company laptop and it requires me use ubuntu (I don't like it but I don't have options to changes OS/distro).

Thanks

Nah, it's a systemd setting. You need to edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf and change HandleLidSwitch= to HandleLidSwitch=suspend-then-hibernate, and the create or edit /etc/systemd/sleep.conf to change the timeout value:

[Sleep]
HibernateDelaySec=900

With the above, the system will automatically hibernate after 15 minutes of sleep.

Note that if you're using a full-fledged DE or a third-party power profile manager, you may need to disable any lid-close actions in there (if it doesn't have the suspend-then-hibernate option) so that systemd can handle it properly.
