I too have been having a problem with Empire 1.33w and reading news.
My setup is a 2500, so I was able to test this in both 68000 and 68020
modes.  I only have 2 Megs of 32bit RAM and 512k CHIP RAM.  I'm
running Dmouse, Mymenu, conman and setcpu (FASTROM and CARDROM for the
2090a in 68020 mode).  Here are my results:

68000 Mode

	-Always gives Guru Number  4.00c65bd8
	-Gives a system requestor telling me something is wrong
	-When the system reboots, it comes up in 68000 mode, not in
	 68020 mode.

68020 Mode

	-Guru Number 4.00c02872
	-Crashes to a blue screen that is totally blank
	-Have to do a three finger reset to get the guru number 
	-It does print the news header upto the date (unlike in 68000
	 mode).  


All of these test have been run with Empire on the Hard drive and from
a virgin world.  I hope  this helps  people!
