Fedora 12 spontaneously suspending

I don't use suspend as a rule (I turn off the computer), but on my laptop, when it is 
not plugged in, it suspends abruptly and with barely any warning or enough time for 
me to take any counter action (like plug in the cable) when the battery level gets to 
around 35% (way to high a battery life to cause such a drastic power off!).

When I then tried to resume my laptop yesterday, it resumed to the locked 
screensaver. I moved the mouse to the field and tried to type my password, when it 
spontaneously suspended again!

I again resumed the machine and this time I got my password typed to unlock the 
screensaver and all was fine. It was definitely unnerving to have it suspend itself 
once (or was it twice?) when I tried to resume from a suspend that had initially been 
triggered by a low battery.

This has never happened before, but I recently upgraded to kde-4.3.85.f12.i686 and I 
experienced this for the first time yesterday.
