2c63f2088e Add a new HAL FAQ which explains how to work with the Freedesktop Hardware 
Abstraction Layer (i.e. volume auto-mounting, troubleshooting, etc.).  Link
this new FAQ into the navibar, and replace our old auto-mounting question
with a link to this new FAQ.

While in our general FAQ, clean up the question on gnome-keyring.

grep: /usr/X11R6/lib/libglade-2.0.la: No such file or directory

libtool: link: `/usr/X11R6/lib/libglade-2.0.la' is not a valid libtool archive

cfd9e12239 www cleanup mega commit: 
- Move includes.nav*.sgml to share/sgml/navibar.ent and
   <lang>/share/sgml/nabibar.l10n.ent.

 - Move includes.sgml and includes.xsl to
   share/sgml/common.ent, share/sgml/header.ent, <lang>/share/sgml/l10n.ent,
   and <lang>?share/sgml/header.l10n.ent.

 - Move most of XSLT libraries to share/sgml/*.xsl and
   <lang>/share/sgml/*.xsl.

 - Move news.xml and other *.xml files for the similar purpose
   to share/sgml/*.xml and <lang>/share/sgml/*.xml.

 - Switch to use a custom DTD for HTML document.  Now we use
   "-//FreeBSD//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional-Based Extension", which is
   HTML 4.01 + some entities previously pulled via
   "<!ENTITY % includes SYSTEM "includes.sgml"> %includes;" line.
   The location of entity file will be resolved by using catalog file.

 - Add DOCTYPE declearation to XML documents.  This makes the followings
   possible:

   * Use of &foo; entities for SGML in an XML file instead of defining
     {$foo} as the same content.

   * &symbolic; entities for Latin characters.

 - Duplicated information between SGML and XML, or English and
   translated doc, has been removed as much as possible.

in the new includes.navgnome.sgml.
