Package: gnus
Version: 5.10.6-0.CVS.20050317-1
Severity: normal

When I start gnus under the console, it gets to saying that it has
loaded the agent, then it stops, and does not take CPU time. Each time
I C-g it says it couldn't open an nntp server. Once it's worked
through those, it does manage to download my mail and start up.

Under X, I don't see this problem at all - it connects to all the news
servers just fine. This is okay, as I only use it under X.

I have no .emacs file.

My .gnus.el is below.
