Test1:
I tested a lot to be shure what the problem is. That is what i have done:

1. I started some apps: Youtube, ubuntufun.de, askubuntu, clock, webbrowser. (no side stage, and table mode is activated)
2. I started to watch a youtube movie (10:16 pm), battery is 76%
3. I ended to watch a youtube movie (10:37 pm), battery is 71%

The weird thing is that the battery draining is not always the same. As I have first seen the effect it was 50% draining at 90 minutes.
Then as I started to tests out, what the problem is (Test1), the draining was much lesser.

But also the draining of Test1 is to much.
