A strange problem 

Forum: PCMCIA Installation and Configuration Issues
Re: Sad: "Bad address mapping" on Sony N505VE (toby cabot)
Date: 2000, Jun 19
From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org> 

I don't understand how something like this could develop all of a
sudden.  Does it matter if you cold boot linux, versus warm booting
from windows?  If the reported bridge mapping address is 0x000000dc,
that would certainly be a problem; the BIOS is supposed to fill this
in, and it is putting it in space used by your system RAM.

The pcmcia_core module has a parameter, cb_mem_base, that lets you
override the bridge address selected by the BIOS.  You could try using
that as a workaround, assuming this isn't just a symptom of something
more serious.  My first guess was "hardware failure" until you said it
still works under Windows.

Message Administration

This form allows you to delete, move, or copy one or more messages. You can move messages by copying and deleting the original. The action will be applied to the messages you select above and all replies to those selected messages.

If you want to copy or move messages, specify the HyperNews path of a destination forum or message that all messages will be copied or moved to. The destination must already exist, so maybe create it first.

Path of Destination (a Forum or Message): (e.g. "test")

Notify Subscribers at destination
NO

If you want to delete messages (the default), specify that here. If you want to move messages, you need to delete the original messages; placeholders will be left pointing to where they were moved.

Delete Messages
NO

Caution: After deleteing messages (the default), if you have not copied them (i.e. no destination above), then the selected messages are not be recoverable.
