My Dell Inspiron 1100, running v9.2 and KDE has a small icon in the tray that
shows the battery status (charging), AC plugged in or not, and time
remaining.
I think I had to have acpi and apm running. You can check these under the MCC,
services listing.
KDE then has a power management section where you can set things, for example
where or not it beeps or plays a sound when the battery gets low and then for
it going critical.
