Hi,
when restarting my laptop after hibernation I get the following:

Setiathome works fine but it seems to me this is still a small flaw.
Greeting, Guy.

Yes, this is known. The error message is more informational than a true error. The WU will probably complete with no problem. By going into hibernation your system just forces the programs to go on hold but doesn't shut them down. This message is generated because the Boinc client is prevented from communicating with the project application for more than 30 seconds as it is expected to be able to do.

Are you sure this is really the case? The reason I ask is that I get exactly the same set of messages on my desktop PC, and that doesn't go into Hibernate mode at all.

As Aurora said, this is more of an informational message and doesn't necessarily happen only on hibernation. The BOINC client can be prevented from communicating to the project application due to various reasons.

For example, I also have a desktop and occasionally running quickpar or some other memory intensive application results in the same message.

If it happens very often then it indicates a problem with the computer and you should check for other causes.

Here is a link to the BOINC Wiki with a detailed explanation of this message...
