"The laptop comes with 2.6.10"
its old , about 6 month : http://kernel.org/
The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is: 2.6.11.8
"so it uses the version of softwaresuspend2 that works with that kernel version only."
your right , but probably an older version too as the new one came out :
http://www.suspend2.net/
5 May 2005: 2.1.8.7 released.
Its also probably using hibernate 1.5 :
http://www.suspend2.net/
Latest hibernate script: 1.07
"And what's the point trying the new version? "
Seems to me all those software are tied up togheter somehow.
"SoftwareSuspend2 does already work as suspend-to-disk, it's suspend-to-ram that doesn't (it's not the same)."
probably relate to hibernate 1.7 9 Dont take my word for it just guessing )
I dont know Ubuntu that well only used it as live cd , is there a possibility to upgrade those to the newer stable version ?
