Not enough free interrupts, apparently 

Forum: PCMCIA on Toshiba laptops
Re: Sad: Tecra550CDT and 2 ethernets IRQ problem (Fred Beck)

You have an interrupt starvation problem.  The PCMCIA-HOWTO has some
information about this situation.  When the i82365 module loads, it
reports what interrupts appear to be available for PCMCIA devices.  It
must have decided that irq 11 is not usable: maybe it is committed for
PCI.

To say more, I'd want to see the PCIC probe messages from the i82365
driver.  You should probably bag the cs_irq setting and instead maybe
force polling for card insertions, with "poll_interval=100".  That may
free up another interrupt.

The latest PCMCIA release may also do a better job of configuring
interrupts, than the drivers included in RH6.1.

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.
