Will the final release of 11.10 fix the battery bug?

Asked by Suhel

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. So are the technicians working on the battery bug? or do I've to switch back to Natty!
