I probably learned from a version of that ref card...

hung adj.

 [from `hung up'; common] Equivalent to
   wedged, but more common at Unix/C sites.  Not generally used
   of people.  Syn. with locked up, wedged; compare
   hosed.  See also hang.  A hung state is distinguished
   from crashed or down, where the program or system is also
   unusable but because it is not running rather than because it is
   waiting for something.  However, the recovery from both situations
   is often the same.  It is also distinguished from the similar but
   more drastic state wedged - hung software can be woken up
   with easy things like interrupt keys, but wedged will need a kill
   -9 or even reboot.
