You should be able to stop the laptop from hibernating by changing the power
settings.  Easiest way is to select the properties menu item on the battery
icon in the top pannel.

Change the settings so that the latop does not hibernate when the battery is
at a critical level.

This does not fix the issue, so I suggest you check launchpad
<https://launchpad.net/>to see if this issue with your laptop has been
reported, there may be a work around.  If not, perhaps you could submitt a
bug on launchpad <https://launchpad.net/> (you can use the same account as
you use with ubuntu one).
