continuue?
If I continue, my subscribed newsgroups are listed, but without any
readable messages. For example:
* linux.debian.user
Once when I tried to download messages in that group, the group name
was replaced with:
*: e100: 3th0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full duplex
Actually, that is just the e100 driver reporting that your link is now
up. It is simply a display thing and the group name is not actually
replaced. Your connection problem earlier is probably simply because
the ethernet link was not up.
Try reconnecting after the link up message shows.
Could it be that I'm no longer being authenticated to the news server?
I'm forced to work from console because my X server won't start
either because it insists on creating a new authority file
(~/.serverauth.3044) that neither shows up nor works.
