French clearly come from Latin and Old Greek, like Spanish or Italian. On the contrary, the German language have nearly no roots in Latin and Greek. I wasn't thinking so far back, but yes, Old English did derive from the Angles, Saxons, Jutes and others. The words of theirs that we still use are all the little words that no-one ever looks up in a dictionary. I'm not so sure about Celtic though; I think there was very little mixing, and nowadays the remains of Celtic are in Cornish, Welsh and Irish and Scottish Gaelic, not English to any great degree. There ought to be a Breton language descendant of Celtic in north-west France as well, and perhaps there is, but I'll have to leave that to others. Before the Normans (whose ancestors were also from Scandinavia!) the major invader was the Vikings. Surprisingly, although the place is littered with Viking place names, as far as I know few language words survive from that period. There are also many traces of Old German and Dutch, but I still maintain that most of the longer words come down from our long and complicated relationship with France, with scholastic regulation (if that's the word) according to Latin and Greek.

Thanks, Kfir I think what you want if using xfce is 'xfce-extra/thunar-volman' (http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/thunar-plugins/thunar-volman), it provides handling(not only automount) for removable devices from thunar, and is configurable with clicks.
Re: [gentoo-user] problem: frequently auto suspend
@godzil, thanks for your reply! By trial and error, I found that the service which trigger suspend is systemd-logind. I have tried reinstalling and uninstalling acpid, but the problem remains.

It does not happen when I press the Sleep button (Fn+F1 if I recall correctly) but happen everytime when closing the lid. I remember to had lots of problem with ACPI configuration, and some key are still not working as expected, anyway, I've may in my case mess with some ACPI script. Maybe you could look at this first?

My laptop suspends automatically after booting up, and suspends on and on after wakeup. I have checked up the log and there is no obvious errors. It works well on Win7 and Ubuntu Live, and on Gentoo the CPU is about 60 ℃. It also works well in single mode, but suspends quickly after I start NetworkManager service. And I found that it echo ^@ before the first-time suspend in the console. I have tried some solutions such as pass pcie_aspm= *force to kernel, disable gdm service, none works.

Re: [gentoo-user] trouble merging gnucash (png16 vs png15)
On May 2, 2014, at 1:31, gottl...@nyu.edu wrote: One of my machines (amd64) cannot merge gnucash-2.6.1. The complaint is that it can't find libpng15. The system has libpng16.

The build log has 2 occurrences of lpng both 15 in consecutive lines. libtool: link: [big snip] -lpng15 [big snip] [small snip] cannot find -lpng15 I seem to remember a few years ago having to edit pngXX to pngYY, but thought those times were definitely over. The problem is that you have a package that you have not been remerged after the update to png16 and those libraries are still linked to png15. Remove all orphan files of png15. Fix la files: la_file_fixer and fix_libtool_files, don't remember which does it so try both. Look at the depgraph of gnucash and remerge the ones related to png. If you are not sure which pakages to remerge, more is allways safer. -- -Matti
