Ubuntu – Battery Critically Low at 85%

People who had same problem I installed Jupiter for them that tend to solve the problem of critical low level of battery in laptops. If you are experiencing such a critical battery level then you can try the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/jupiter
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install jupiter

Thank you.

Ubuntu – Suspend when critically low power 11.10

Not sure why power settings only offers hibernate or shutdown.
You can change the option to suspend using dconf-editor:
Browse to org->gnome->settings-daemon->plugins->power, and change the value of critical-battery-action to "suspend".
