suspend2 works great (on fujitsu p7010 subnotebook) but
after recent updates (sorry I don't know which ones exactly
but probably the switch to userui program for suspend2)
the text progress bar no longer functions.

dmesg reports:

Code:
userspace ui userspace process using invalid interface version. Trying to continue without it.

userspace ui: Failed to contact userspace process.


I have this line is /etc/hibernate/suspend2.conf:

Code:
## Specify a userui like this:
ProcSetting userui_program /sbin/suspend2ui_text


Anyone know what causes this / a fix? TIA[/post]

I'm having the exactly same problem with "linux-2.6.18-suspend2-r1". I really enjoyed the progress bar in the text mode, but now it's gone. Funny thing is, "/etc/hibernate/suspend2.conf" tries to use the right file at a wrong location.
Code:
ProcSetting userui_program /usr/local/sbin/suspend2ui_text

The actual file is "/sbin/suspend2ui_text", but that doesn't help either. Any clues?

Glad you posted (sorry for your problem though of course :) ).
For me, upgrading to the 2.6.21 suspend2 kernel fixed the
problem (I'll put "SOLVED" in the original subject).

I do get a weird message just before the computer shuts
down in hibernation, something like

Code:
switching to alternative shutdown method ...


anyone know what that is and should I worry (everything seems
to work however)

Plus, the 2.6.21 kernel lets me hibernate without removing
/reinserting my slmodem module. Seems to hibernate faster
too. HURRAY!

All this plus the tickless kernel makes the upgrade very worthwhile.

Indeed. I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.20-suspend2-r6, which was the non-masked latest, and now the progress bar is back. Thanks.
