Re: Wifi regularly disconnects and short battery life

And the other problem is that my battery life is really short since I have a dual-boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu. On Ubuntu it lasts 3 hours maximum!!!
So I'm really new to all this stuff, I know I have to give you a lot more details but I just don't know what. So if someone is kind enough to help me, I'll do anything
.
Thank you in advance.
battery life is based on hardware
I suspect your have nvidia optimus
