>Description:
Numerous manpages in section 4 have 'without' mis-spelled as 'withough' in the license, also, 'relabeled' is mispelled as 'relabelled' (dictionary.com, dict, and ispell all say relabeled is proper), as weill as 'queuing' being mispelled as 'queueing'. Additionaly, one occurance of the word 'linux' (not a reference to linux(4), but referencing to Linux) should have been capitalised as 'Linux' as is apparently the consistent style. A unified diff is included.
