[ATrpms-users] Suspend2 support?

Can someone please tell me what's going on with cubbi_suspend2 support?
I have a R-cubed Technologies Laptop that came with FC6 installed along
with a suspend2 kernel (from Matthias Hensler). Unfortunately, the
laptop also has an ATI Mobile Radeon X1600 video system.
I've been using fglrx kmods from LIVNA, and rebuilding them for each new
suspend2 kernel that I've installed, but the suspend2 kernels have been
coming fewer and fewer lately. Plus, Axel's recent move seems to have
stopped all of the kmdls I rely on for support of the released suspend2
kernels.
As of today, I am running:
kernel-suspend2-2.6.22.2-42_1.cubbi_suspend2.fc6
because that is the last suspend2 kernel that has the needed support
kmods for me. *BUT*, not every released Fedora kernel even has a
suspend2 counterpart. My installed kernel list consists of:
kernel-2.6.22.2-42.fc6.i686
kernel-2.6.22.4-45.fc6.i686
kernel-2.6.22.5-49.fc6.i686
kernel-2.6.22.7-57.fc6.i686
kernel-2.6.22.9-61.fc6.i686
but my kernel-suspend2 list only contains:
kernel-suspend2-2.6.22.2-42_1.cubbi_suspend2.fc6.i686
kernel-suspend2-2.6.22.4-45_1.cubbi_suspend2.fc6.i686
kernel-suspend2-2.6.22.7-57_1.cubbi_suspend2.fc6.i686
In addition, I require the following kmdls:
ieee80211-kmdl
ipw3945-kmdl
but the 22.2-42 kmdls are the last built ones I can find. And just to
further the complications, I was running the ipw3945 version 1.2.2 kmdls
from atrpms-testing which improve the reliability of my wireless initial
connections tremendously (not perfect, but much better than using the
atrpms-stable versions) and the wpa_supplicant from atrpms-testing as
well. But, the last time I looked, there is no longer a single
cubbi_suspend2 kmdl in atrpms-testing.
But, without kmdls for the later cubbi_suspend2 kernels, I'm stuck on
2.6.22.2-42.
And 1 final question? (Probably better pointed towards Matthias):
Where are the suspend2 kernels for 2.6.22.4-45 and 2.6.22.9-61?
[author's note: did I miss some big announcement about cubbi_suspend2?
Yes, I know about the "rename" to tuxonice. But that's F7, right?]
Thanks in advance for all the useful insight into my problems!
