Exactly the same problem here. I've tried the last 3 generation of Ubuntu on my EeePC 1000H, but none of them has been able to run the action assigned to a critically low battery state successfully. I only remember some 2 or 3 times when it really happened. And my laptop has shut down unexpectedly for such power-cuts maybe 100 times already. That's the biggest trouble with Ubuntu on EeePCs. The problem is that: IT DOESN'T GUESS THE REMAINING BATTERY LIFE CORRECTLY. It still shows some 5 minutes remaining, when the battery suddenly goes over, however it would run the action at 2 minutes remaining, I think. Interestingly, the KDE POWER MANAGER IN KUBUNTU WORKS PERFECTLY with my hardware.
It's the most dangerous bug for the hardware you can have.
