I think it is more tricky than that, unfortunately

Argh.  The i82365 module used to use the old PCIC power register for
ToPIC chipsets, but this turned out to also cause problems, and I can
tell you for certain that on at least some "ToPIC95B" chipsets, the
CardBus power register works fine.

Part of this seems connected to a totally brain dead attribute of the
ToPIC chips.  The vendor and device ID's of the ToPIC chips change
depending on the bridge setting in the BIOS.  I have datasheets that
describe a "ToPIC95" and a "ToPIC97", and give vendor and device ID's
for each.  However, in practice, the device ID's don't seem to reflect
what sort of chip you have: they only reflect this BIOS setting.

The next PCMCIA driver release will also report the "revision number",
which I hope might be more informative.  Until I can determine how to
tell which "ToPIC95B" chips need the patch, I can't apply it, because
it is a bad thing on other systems.

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.
