5b2338f990 A couple of small wording, grammar and style fixes: 
- add &nbsp; between the &epson.perfection; and the model number
- replace a ` with ' to be consistent with the screen output
- contain -> contents
- cause -> because
- Reword the sentence containing "most of time" to one that is
  easier to read

d73a242bbc - With Xorg 7.4 it's a pain if you don't have an US keyboard and don't 
use KDE, GNOME, etc. so let's add a note on how to set the right
  keyboard layout.  This will help a lot of people;
- while writing this addition, I noted that one HAL key I used in my
  previous commit was said to be "deprecated", so let's use the "right"
  one.

ca440f8110 Add informations on how, for real, re-enable Ctrl+Alt+Backspace: 
- with setxkbmap(1);
  - with a hald's x11-input.fdi file (encourage people to reboot the box
    to force hald to correctly reload its configuration since I noted
    that /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald restart etc. often ended in a
    non-detected mouse...).

cc53e3874a Move the word "debug" behind the ELF acronym. According to trhodes, the 
sections mentioned in that sentence are debug sections.
With that change, the sentence makes a lot more sense than before.

303ba7e0f5 s/XFce/Xfce/g 
The Xfce project choose to de-capitalize the letter 'F' because it no longer
uses XForms from which this abbreviation originated.

for sending in the PR and patch.
