I have experienced exactly the same issue on a Toshiba Tecra M2. Initially, there was no problem using older versions such as 9.04 (I think). After un update to a newer version the battery drain issue suddenly appeared, though I cannot now remeber the version number at which the problem appeared. Initially, I thought that the battery was at fault and bought a new one but the battery kept draining even when the computer was off. Both the old and new batteries are fine and do not drain if removed from the computer after shutdown.
I'm now using Linux Mint (with MATE) as my OS of choice and the problem persists. -- 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.
