Hi and thanks for replying. Top seems clean, processes are normal. I was also thinking about the graphic card but I have no idea how to check the power consumption of the card. If there is a way to switch it off completely maybe this could give me an idea. This card is an Optimus. I installed Bumblee and it's difficult to say if it is working. The temperature of the laptop decreased so I think the card should be off. But the optirun command doesn't work for some reason. The final outcome is that I don't know if the card is off and maybe this could be the source off the battery problem. Is there a way to check the status of the discrete card? Andrea
