Does anyone know of software that offers laptop-mod-tools' configuration to automatically hibernate on a critical battery level?
Does it have to be something other than Gnome?
The suggestion is appreciated, but being a snobby i3 user, I rather despise Gnome, KDE, and other similar weighty environments. I'm making some progress on a udev rule that will do what I want, however; currently I'm testing to see how often my battery emits udev events.

And the udev rule works! Now I can completely do away with laptop-mode-tools. For the curious, I used: SUBSYSTEM=="power_supply", ATTR{status}=="Discharging", ATTR{capacity}=="5", RUN+="/usr/bin/systemctl hybrid-sleep" This should work for any laptop that emits battery uevents at a reasonable rate; mine didn't seem to at first, but started sending one per 1% drop after it dropped below 15% or so, so if you want to test it you may be waiting a while.
