Note: in case 3.1.2 or higher is hanging your system....

On my Dell Inspiron 3000, when I upgraded from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2 (and from the changelog, I assume this would still hold with 3.1.3), I got sudden hangs when loading the card services (i82365.o). It's described in the HOWTO as in IRQ issue.

I was able to work-around this problem by adding PCIC_OPTS="pci_csc=0" in /etc/pcmcia.conf, thereby disabling the PCI IRQ scan, which was hanging my box.

Just FYI. David, I don't know if this is common, but it was a few days of distress for me. Hope this helps some other poor soul...

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.

Notify Subscribers at destination

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

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.
