Comment 191 for bug 760131

I've recently installed 11.10 beta 2 on my laptop {Dell Xps 15, i5, 6gbram, 1gb video card, 500gb hd) and its sucking my battery like a sponge would suck water I hardly get an hour of battery backup. whereas when I use Windows7 my battery lasts more than 2:30hours.
I've the latest kernels upgraded and its not fixed. (who marked this bug fixed?????)
