Problems with KLaptop

I'm running Mandrake 9.2 on a Compaq Armada E500 laptop.  When I first 
installed the system, KLaptop would helpfully warn me when the batteries was 
low.  Recently, I've run into the problem where the Klaptop monitor says I 
still have 40% on the battery but then the laptop suddenly powers off as if 
the battery is dead.  

Is there a way to fix this?  The battery seems to last the same length of time 
as before, it's just that KLaptop seems to have an inaccurate measure of 
remaining battery life.

Regards,

Brad Fonseca
