The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003):

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 crash
    ed 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.
