Gwibber stops working after suspending

I have the exact same issue.

It shows a greyed out text area for me.

Same as Jorge here. Greyed out text area and additionally a greyed out Refresh entry in the Gwibber menu.

At least for me the problem is still there in the current daily (2.29.91~bzr651-0ubuntu1~daily1~karmic) on ubuntu karmic.

This bug was fixed in the package gwibber - 2.29.91-0ubuntu1

---------------
gwibber (2.29.91-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * new upstream release 2.29.91
    - fixed a bug that prevented mentions/replies to get added to the
      messaging indicator
    - added more debug level logging
    - Fixed raising the client via dbus, missed a variable rename
    - Added signatures to the URLShorten dbus methods, fixes (LP: #517723)
    - URL shortening should be async (LP: #521974)
    - don't fail if desktopcouch is slow to start
    - Make "Name" more descriptive, it is displayed on UNE and in
      GNOME Shell (LP: #522180)
    - Fixed calls to print_exc that failed
    - Gwibber stops working after suspending (LP: #518550)
    - Fixed notifications for mentions only (LP: #528270)
    - Set the autostart gconf key if it wasn't set at all before
    - Internationalization fixed from David Planella (LP: #520462)
    - use human readable time string in save to tomboy (LP: #532730)
    - imported translations from LP
    - Moved the init_design_doc method call to MessageMonitor, this fixes a
      bug loading the design document before it is created
    - fixed a problem with configuring accounts spawning two services
    - check to see if gwibber-service is already running before starting
  * debian/gwibber.desktop
    - Make gwibber-service autostart with a delay of 60s if accounts are
      configured

I think I still have this problem. Using Ubuntu 9.10 AMD64

Since gwibber 2.3 doesn't have a notification icon, I always forget to minimize rather than exiting. So when I try to restart gwibber, I get the same error log as Caramdir

I also put my computer to sleep often.

I, too, still get this issue and same connection refused error after suspending my computer with the daily build of Gwibber on Karmic 64-bit.

I am experiencing exactly this bug on a fresh install of Lucid Final x64. Since two other people have also reported that this bug still affects them, I am reopening it. Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide to help fix this issue.

Ok, this is weird. If I suspend once, when I return I get errors as above, mostly:

** (gwibber:2675): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'WnckWindowState' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags'

** (gwibber:2675): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'WnckWindowActions' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags'
