I wondered why you said (in your previous mail) that uswsusp did not
work after fixing the typo, since I use uswsusp too!

After your latest mail (and checking my own /etc/uswsusp.conf and
/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume), all is clear.

An aside is that the hook with the typo does incorrect error catching.

  error due to typo in command != error generated by command

So checking the error number should have caught this mistake!

Kapil.
