Lenovo unstable and sudden power-downs on battery
On my Lenovo ideapad 100 which is about 2 years old, I'm running Ubuntu 18.04. Everything is fine except that last week the system starts to power-off suddenly or to display a corrupted screen for about 30 seconds and then to power off.
My work-around for now is to keep the laptop connected and 100% charged as those problems only occur when it is running on battery. I supervised the CPU temperature but I didn't remarked anything suspicious. I also booted the device without opening any applications so that CPU activity is the as low as it can be (with Ubuntu booted) but the power-off occurs nevertheless.
I'm surprised because until last week the battery kept up to 4hours, so that I eliminated all tests related to a battery problem.
Any hints would be deeply appreciated!

Maybe you shouldn't rule out the battery if the problem only occurs when on battery. For troubleshooting, you could try an older kernel or maybe a live system. How long does the system run until it powers off?

Sometimes it happens straight after removing the power supply, sometimes it keeps for two minutes... I already tried an older kernel, but I will try the live system, too.
