Battery died

OK, I recently bought a new computer and installed Dapper on it.  One of
the things I thought would be really nice about dapper is that it allows
one to set things up so that the laptop will automatically hibernate when
the battery charge becomes critical.  

Unfortunately it didn't work.  I just lost quite a bit of work when my
battery died.  Not only did the laptop not automatically hibernate, it
didn't even give me a warning about the battery level.  

How do I get this to work?  

In addition I've noticed that Mathematica doesn't survive
hibernation.  What would cause this?  How does Mathematica even detect
that the computer has been hibernated?  Is there any fix for this?

Thanks.
