Workrave's way of counting time doesn't see when the machine is suspended and
then resumed:
- the micro break and the rest break counters keep their value: for example, if
the machine is suspended for 1 day, it is not useful to have Workrave ask for
the user for a rest break just 1 minute after the user started working again on
the resumed machine.
- similarly, the daily limit counter only gets reset when the machine happens to
be running at the time indicating; it would be nice if Workrave realized that
last time it did a check was before the reset time, and it now is after the
reset time, and resets it.

Are you taking about the menuitem "mode->suspended" or about suspend to ram/disk
hibernate? Your description suggests the latter. However, you report this bug
for Linux. I haven't tested hibernate for Linux. 

For windows, a number of hibernate issues have been resolved after 1.4.0. Daily
snapshots are available from http://www.workrave.org/download/snapshots/. You
might want to try of these fix the problem you reported.

I just did a test with Workrave 1.4.1:
- I used my computer.
- I suspended the computer to disk (with swsusp) for about a day
- I resumed.
After I resumed, Workrave displayed that I was 1:13 away from a rest break, when
I think that it should reset itself and should have told me that I was 25
minutes away (my setting) from it.

In short, it looks that the problem is still there.

Ah, you are using linux with software suspend. At the moment, Workrave only
detects hibernate/suspend on windows. On linux, workrave assumes that the time
the computer was suspended never occurred. In other words, the timer values
after resume are exactly the same are just before the suspend. I will
investigate if it is possible to receive syspend/resume events from swsusp.

Actually, Workrave does not seem to detect suspend to ram on Windows XP 
(Start>Shutdown>Standby) on my laptop.
The main problem I have noticed is that if/when I go to Standby and leave 
work, with say 1 hour left on my Daily Limit, then when I get home and several 
hours later open my laptop and start working again, immediately I get the "you 
should quit for the day" pop-up.
I think that the entire time the PC is suspended or hibernated, Workrave 
should stop counting...

On Linux, Workrave still can't distinguish between changing the clock and a hibernate (in both cases, some time is missing). Linux has been changed to assume missing time is always hibernate/suspend. Not optimal, but the best I can do. Works for me(tm)

A number of windows hibernate bugs have been fixed in the past (after 2004). I haven't received any hibernate complaints lately, So, I assume hibernate is stable on Windows. I haven't seen any glitches myself.  

I'm closing this bug (in case people don't complain because there is an open bug about hibernate). Please re-open or file a new bug is hibernate is still broken.
