Nope. I just can't install the BIOS update without Windows, but: I don't have Windows. Nor do I have a optic drive.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi, In Ubuntu 15.04 I had around 7-8 hours of battery life but after upgrade I got half. Why? Maybe not the right package, but I don't know what else than the kernel. If wrong please change. I use lmt for increased battery life, and it is still installed (even reinstalled and I also tried ltp instead, but no change). Disabling intel p state turbo does no change. I dont really have any processes ruining it and it even says 4 hours after first boot. The battery ost 5% just while I submitted this bug report.
