Thanks, Jim, but I tried kpowersave without luck since it requires
qt D-bus modules that are only available in QT 4. I am running slack-11
which is based on QT 3, which doesn't come with these modules. But I found
"klaptop" which gives a basic tool to monitor and run scripts based on 
battery status - that will do for now.

Thanks,
