HP Elitebook / Ubuntu Studio: battery decharge after shutdown

Trying this recipe.

# sudo -i
# gedit gedit /etc/default/grub

Change the line to:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=force"

Dropped Linux Mint

Well ... I tried and tried, but never found a  cure fore the unstable wifi under Linux Mint. So I dropped Mint in favor of Ubuntu Studio Edition. I teach multimedia design. So it must be a good match.
