Success!

On my ThinkPad A22p, both the 2.6.6-1.422.i586 and 2.6.5-1.358.i586
kernels will gracefully suspend (to RAM) and resume if:

  /sbin/cardctl eject
  /etc/init.d/pcmcia stop
  rmmod ds
  rmmod yenta_socket
  rmmod pcmcia_core

is executed before the suspend.  It works from both the text consoles
and with X running with no screen corruption.  Both closing the lid and
"apm -s" were tested.

This is great news (for me, anyway) since it was the only really
annoying FC2 bug that I encountered.

Thanks again to the FC2 developers and testers!
