i have a problem.  when i run on battery power, i sometimes forget to check
my meter regularly.  for some reason, my laptop will surprise me and eat up
a lot of power in a short time.  when this happens, the computer beeps and
shuts down.  while resume usually works, if PPP was running, the machine
crashes if i try to reconnect.

is there a way to have the OS beep at me or otherwise warn me before
shutting down from low power?
