This bug is clearly not a duplicate of bug #531190, so I'm removing the duplicate status. This bug is specific to 11.10 and is not present in 10.04.

The power manager icon in the indicator area read 7 minutes to full charge at the time. Looks like gnome is confusing time to empty and time to full charge.
