Hi everyone.

I'm pleased to announce the first release candidate for suspend2 version
2.2.

People upgrading from 2.1.9 and earlier releases should note that all of
the user interface support has now been moved to userspace. You'll want
to build and install the userspace ui tarball (also available from
suspend2.net) to get either a fbsplash display or the text display.

Changes since 2.1.9.14:
- Fixed problem with swapwriter buffer offset not being reset
when beginning to write the image header.
- PPC fixes from Johannes Berg.
- Give a better message when can't initialise a compressor.
- Remove an unused variable from the pageset_sizes_result struct.
- Make Suspend still compile ok when networking is disabled.
Userui won't work (it uses netlink), but suspending will.
This will also be handy for embedded support.
- Say why we can't do userui when we can't open /dev/console
(entirely possible when resuming from an initrd).

Regards,

Nigel
