-    \section2 Installing the Source Package on Unix systems
-
-    \list
-
-    \o  If you download a Zip source package, you will need to convert
-        Windows-style line endings (CR/LF) to Unix-style line-endings (LF) when
-        you uncompress the package.  To do this, give the "-a" option when you
-        run the "unzip' command.
-
-    \o  If you fail to supply the "-a" option when unzipping the package, you
-        will see the following error message when you attempt to execute the
-        configure command:
-        "bash: ./configure: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"

-    \section2 Installing on Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard"
-
-    \list
-
-    \o There are two workarounds, either disable spotlight for the target
-       drive during the install, or do a custom install where you deselect
-       documentation and examples. Run the installer again as a full
-       install to get the documentation and examples installed.

-    \section1 Issues with Third Party Software
-
-    \section2 X11
-
-    \list
-    \o  There is a bug in the 169.xx NVIDIA drivers on certain GeForce 8 series
-        cards that is triggered by the OpenGL paint engine when using QPainter
-        on a QGLWidget to draw paths and polygons. Some other painting
-        operations that end up in the path fallback are affected as well. The
-        bug causes the whole X server to repeatedly hang for several seconds at
-        a time.
-    \o  There is an issue with NVIDIA's 9xxx driver series on X11 that causes a
-        crash in cases where there are several \l{QGLContext}s and the extended
-        composition modes are used (the composition modes between and including
-        QPainter::CompositionMode_Multiply and
-        QPainter::CompositionMode_Exclusion). This affects the composition mode
-        demo in Qt 4.5, for example. The crash does not occur in newer versions
-        of the drivers.
-    \endlist
-
-    \section2 Windows
-
-    \list
-
-    \o  When using version 6.14.11.6921 of the NVIDIA drivers for the GeForce
-        6600 GT under Windows XP, Qt applications which use drag and drop will
-        display reduced size drag and drop icons when run alongside
-        applications that use OpenGL. This problem can be worked around by
-        reducing the level of graphics acceleration provided by the driver, or
-        by disabling hardware acceleration completely.
-
-    \o  With NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT (driver version 6.14.11.7824), a fullscreen
-        QGLWidget flickers when child widgets are shown/hidden. The workaround
-        for this is to use \l{QWidget::}{setGeometry()} with a width/height 1
-        pixel bigger than your geometry and call \l{QWidget::}{show()}.
-
-    \o  A bug in the Firebird database can cause an application to crash when
-        \c{fbembed.dll} is unloaded. The bug is fixed in version 2.5.
-
-    \o  On Windows 7, resizing windows is slower than on Vista/Xp. This is because
-        the gesture initialization process (required for native gesture support)
-        currently calls winId() on widgets, which causes whole widget hierarchies
-        to use native window handles. This slows down resizing.
-
-    \o  Compile errors with Intel C++ Compiler.\br
-        There seems to be a bug in the Intel compiler with respect to
-        over-agressive inlining of code.
-        The problem will manifest itself during the link phase of QtGui where
-        it fails with the error that it cannot find QObjectData::~QObjectData().
-        See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-5145} for updates on this
-        bug.
-        Also, due to some bugs in WebKit, the QtScript and QtWebKit modules
-        will not compile.
-        See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6297} for a
-        workaround for QtScript.
-		
-    \o  Compile errors with Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. \br
-        There seems to be a bug in the Microsoft compiler when compiling with O2
-        optimization level in 64 bit.
-        This problem will result in crashes in QAbstractItemView::viewOptions().
-        See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11445} for updates on this
-        bug.

-    \section2 Mac OS X
-
-    \list
-
-    \o  If a sheet is opened for a given window, clicking the title bar of that
-        window will cause it to flash. This behavior has been reported to Apple
-        (bug number 5827676).
