    Linux Low battery notification

    Yes, it does. I haven't used Ubuntu on a laptop in a while. There used to be a software called Battery Monitor. But it is archived now. Not available since 18.04. If I remember correctly, Ubuntu never had any low battery notification unless we use a third-party tool. It will simply suspend...
