exceptionally good signal area that is free from

interference and multiple image ghosts,

Wire

an indoor antenna may be sufficient.

LOCATION

Wood screw

two places

Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor

illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen.

Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free

flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the

set. In order to prevent an internal temperature

increase, maintain a space of 10 cm (4 inches) from the

sides/back of the Television, and 30 cm (12 inches)

from the top of the television to the wall. To avoid

cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased

chance of set failure, do not place the TV where

VIEWING

The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of

the TV and about 10 to 18 feet from the screen.

During daylight hours, reflections from outside light

may appear on the screen. If so, drapes or screens

can be used to reduce the reflection or the TV can

be located in a different section of the room.

If the TV’s audio output will be connected to a Hi-Fi

system’s external speakers, the best audio

performance will be obtained by placing the

speakers equidistant from each side of the receiver

cabinet and as close as possible to the height of

the picture screen center. For best stereo

separation, place the external speakers at least

four feet from the side of the TV, place the surround

speakers to the side or behind the viewing area.

Differences in room sizes and acoustical

environments will require some experimentation

with speaker placement for best performance.

Equipment Care and Troubleshooting

DO NOT

Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth.

Do not clean your screen with strong cleaners, polishes

or a chemically treated cloth.

Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened in warm

water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild soap may be

used if the screen is extremely dirty.

Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane

tape on your Plasma Television.

Place your Plasma Television away from extreme heat,

humidity, and extremely dusty places.

Avoid repeatedly touching the screen.

Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as

dropping it on the floor, etc. This may cause damage to

the precision parts.

Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your Plasma

Television will not be used for a long period of time, for

instance, when you go on vacation.

Avoid placing the remote control in a high humidity

place or getting it wet. Do not leave it on or near a

heater. Excessive heat or moisture may cause the unit

to fail.

Reception Problems

IGNITION NOISE:

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.

Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps,

electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.

GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the

direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other

objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve

reception. Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system such

as unshielded leads or connecting several sets to the same antenna without

using multiple antenna couplers.

SNOW:

If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the

signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots.

When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a special

antenna to improve the picture.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:

• RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:

The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some

cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

• PREVENTION OF AN OBSTACLE TO RADIO RECEIVERS

This television has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This is to prevent a problem to Radio

receivers. If this television causes a problem to Radio receivers, then take the following steps:

- Keep the television away from Radio.

- Adjust Radio antennas in order for the television not to receive interference.

- The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the television.

- Use a coaxial cable for antenna.

You can check if this television influences Radio receivers by turning off all other equipment other than the television.

If you find a problem receiving Radio when using the television, check the instructions mentioned above.

BLOCK NOISE (DIGITAL INPUT):

Fuzzy blocks may appear in some area or the whole area of the screen. This is

usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps,

electrical drills, ghosting of the image and weak signals.

BLACK SCREEN:

When using an antenna, weak signals will display a black screen. It may be

necessary to upgrade your antenna.

NOTE: The TV set can generate sound distortion in external devices such as a radio. Please separate radio

equipment from the TV set to a considerable distance.

Troubleshooting

1. Plasma Television Troubleshooting

Items

Notes

A buzzing sound may be heard when the plasma television is turned on in a very quiet

room. This is due to the plasma panel drive circuit when it is functioning. The buzzing

sound is normal and is not a malfunction.

operation of other infrared controlling equipment.

High precision technology is used to manufacture the plasma television. But there

maybe points that do not illuminate, points that are too bright, and points with color

different from that of the periphery. Please note that this is not a mafunction.

In some cases, residual images may remain after the short term display of still images

when the picture changes.

The plasma display panel display images by means of electrical discharges inside the

panel. This may cause the temperature of the panel surface to increase. Please note that

this is not a malfunction.

A reinforced glass filter is installed over the plasma panel surface. A strong impact to

the front panel risk a danger of glass breakage.

Please transport the plasma television in it's packing box and placed in an upright

position. Do not transport the plasma television in a horizontal position. This increases

the posibility of panel breakage and pixel failure.

When a screen is seen at point-blank range, a random fine grain may be visible in the

dark areas of the picture.

High temperature affect the electric discharge/luminescence characteristic of the PDP

panel. Do not place the plasma television in high temperature environments.

whatsoever regarding the software and, to the maximum extent

permitted by law, hereby expressly disclaims all warranties of any

kind whatsoever, express or implied, with respect to the software.

All implied warranties, including without limitation, the implied

warranties of non-infringement, merchantability and fitness for a

particular purpose are hereby expressly disclaimed by hitachi to

the maximum extent permitted by law.

You may not use the Software for any commercial purpose.

VIOLATIONS; INDEMNITY. You understand and agree that your

use of the Software in any manner except as permitted under this

Agreement could constitute a serious crime and could subject you

to damages and an award to HITACHI of attorneys’ fees in

connection with your violation of this Agreement. You further

understand that you may be held legally responsible for any

rights caused or facilitated by your failure to abide by the terms of

this Agreement. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold HITACHI

and its parent and affiliate companies harmless from and against

any and all liability resulting from any breach by you of this

Agreement.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. To the maximum extent permitted by

applicable law, HITACHI, its licensors, suppliers, parent

companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, employees and agents shall not

under any circumstances be liable to you or any third parties for

any damages of any nature arising in any way from this agreement,

your use of the software or otherwise, whether indirect, special,

incidental, consequential or otherwise, including, without limitation,

any claims for lost profits, lost good will, lost data, business

interruption, procurement of substitute goods or services, or

expenditures made or committed for in reliance on the continuation

of this agreement, even if advised in advance of the possibility of

such damages.

property rights associated with any content that is accessible

through use of the Software shall belong to the applicable content

owners and may be protected by copyright or other intellectual

property laws and treaties. This Agreement grants you no rights to

use such content. Any rights of HITACHI not expressly granted to

you hereunder are reserved expressly by Hitachi.

NO FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. You agree that neither

HITACHI' S breach of this agreement nor its failure to repair a

defect, error or bug in the software shall constitute a failure of the

essential purpose of this agreement.

CRYPTOGRAPHIC SOFTWARE. The software contains software

developed by the OpenSSL Project, including cryptographic software

written by eric young (the "cryptographic software"). The

cryptographic software is provided by the OpenSSL Project in "as is''

condition and any express or implied warranties, including but not

limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for

a particular purpose are hereby expressly disclaimed to the

maximum extent permitted by law. In no event shall the OpenSSL

Project, its contributors, HITACHI or any of its parent or affiliate

companies be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special,

exemplary, or consequential damages (including, but not limited to,

procurement of substitute goods or services; loss of use, data, or

profits; or business interruption) however caused and on any theory

of liability, whether in contract, strict liability, or tort (including

to install or use any Upgrade, your installation and use of such

Upgrade and/or any other software or intellectual property

HITACHI may provide in connection therewith shall be governed by

the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except to the extent

that HITACHI provides different or supplementary license terms or

conditions that accompany such Upgrade or other software or

intellectual property. In the event HITACHI provides you with a

“flash card” or other media to effect or facilitate an Upgrade, you

understand and acknowledge that your failure to return such flash

card or other media to HITACHI as HITACHI may require could

result in HITACHI placing your name and your DTV’s serial number

on a “No Further Upgrades” list, which will prohibit you from

receiving any subsequent Upgrades HITACHI may later release or

make available. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL THE TERMS

AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ALL THE TERMS

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are

not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act

of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the

Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based

on the Program (independent of having been made by running

the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program

does.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your

freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General

Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share

and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all

its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free

Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose

authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation

software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License

instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's

source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that

you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an

appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep

intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence

of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a

copy of this License along with the Program.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not

price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure

that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and

charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code

or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use

pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do

these things.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,

and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange

for a fee.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid

anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the

rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for

you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any

portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and

copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms

of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these

conditions:

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether

gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that

you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get

the source code. And you must show them these terms so they

know their rights.

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent

notices stating that you changed the ¿OHV and the date of

any change.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software,

and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to

copy, distribute and/or modify the software.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that

in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program

or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge

to all third parties under the terms of this License.

Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make

certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this

free software. If the software is modified by someone else and

passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is

not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not

UHÀHFWꢀRQꢀWKHꢀRULJLQDOꢀDXWKRUVꢁꢀUHSXWDWLRQVꢂ

c) If the modified program normally reads commands

interactively when run, you must cause it, when started

running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to

print or display an announcement including an appropriate

else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may

redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling

the user how to view a copy of this License. ꢅ([FHSWLRQꢆ if

the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print

such an announcement, your work based on the Program is

not required to print an announcement.)

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software

patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free

program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making

the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear

that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not

licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and

PRGL¿FDWLRQꢀIROORw.

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If

identL¿DEOH sections of that work are not derived from the Program,

and can be reasonably considered independent and separate

works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply

to those sections when you distribute them as separate works.

But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole

which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the

whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for

other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and

every part regardless of who wrote it.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,

DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which

contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may

be distributed under the terms of this General Public License.

The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work,

and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program

or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a

work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim

or with modifications and/or translated into another language.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest

your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is

to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or

collective works based on the Program.

End User License Agreement for Operating System Software

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the

Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program)

on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the

other work under the scope of this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent

infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),

conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement

or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they

do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you

cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations

under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a

consequence you may not distribute the Program at all.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on

it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the

terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of

the following:

For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free

redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies

directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could

satisfy both it and this License would be torefrain entirely from

distribution of the Program. If any portion of this section is held

invalid or unenforceable underany particular circumstance, the

balance of the section is intended toapply and the section as a

whole is intended to apply in othercircumstances.

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-

readable source code, which must be distributed under the

terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily

used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three

years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than

your cost of physically performing source distribution, a

complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding

source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections

1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software

interchange; or,

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any

patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of

any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting

the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is

implemented by public license practices. Many people have made

generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed

through that system in reliance on consistent application of that

system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing

to distribute software through any other system and a licensee

cannot impose that choice.

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to

the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This

alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution

and only if you received the program in object code

or executable form with such an offer, in accord with

Subsection b above.)

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed

to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work

for making PRGL¿FDWLRQV to it. For an executable work, complete

source code means all the source code for all modules it contains,

plus any associated interface GH¿QLWLRQ ¿OHVꢇ plus the scripts used

to control compilation and installation of the executable. However,

as a special exception, the source code distributed need not

include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or

binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so

on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless

that component itself accompanies the executable.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in

certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces,

the original copyright holder who places the Program under this

License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation

excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in

or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License

incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or

new versions of the General Public License from time to time.

Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,

but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering

access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent

access to copy the source code from the same place counts as

distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not

compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the

Program VSHFL¿HV a version number of this License which applies

to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the

terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version

published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does

not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any

version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the

Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any

attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the

Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under

this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,

from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated

so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free

programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the

author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted

by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software

Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision

will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all

derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and

reuse of software generally.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not

signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify

or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions

are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore,

by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on

the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to

do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or

modifying the Program or works based on it.

NO WARRANTY

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based

on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license

from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program

subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any

further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted

herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third

parties to this License.

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF

CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM,

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT

WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT

HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM

"AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER

EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED

End User License Agreement for Operating System Software

TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND

FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK

AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM

IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE,

YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,

REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer)

or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the

program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the

program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers)

written by James Hacker.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE

LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT

HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY

AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED

ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING

ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL

DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO

USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE

OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A

FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER

PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS

BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989

Ty Coon, President of Vice

This General Public License does not permit incorporating

your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a

subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit

linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you

want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead

of this License.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the

greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this

is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and

change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest

to attach them to the start of each source ¿le to most effectively

convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at

least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is

found.

<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what

it does.>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or

modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License

as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version

2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,

but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied

warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A

PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public

License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public

License along with this program; if not, write to the Free

Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston,

MA 02110-1301 USA

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and

paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this

when it starts in an interactive mode:

Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY;

for details type `show w'. This is free software, and you are

welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show

c' for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show

the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course,

the commands you use may be called something other than `show

w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--

whatever suits your program.

End User License Agreement for Operating System Software

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2.1, February 1999

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the ¿UVW released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence

the version number 2.1.]

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically

or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally

speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library. The

ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking

only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The

Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking

other code with the library.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your

freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General

Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share

and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all

its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some

specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of

the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to

use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you ¿UVW think carefully

about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License

is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the

explanations below.

We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License

because it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the

ordinary General Public License. It also provides other free

software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-

free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the

ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However,

the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special

circumstances.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom

of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to

make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free

software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive

source code or can get it if you want it; that you can change the

software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you

are informed that you can do these things.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to

encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it

becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs

must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a

free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.

In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free

software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid

distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender

these rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities

for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-

free programs enables a greater number of people to use a large

body of free software. For example, permission to use the GNU

C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use

the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/

Linux operating system.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis

or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we

gave you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get

the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must

provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they can

relink them with the library after making changes to the library and

recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know

their rights.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of

the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that

is linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to

UXQꢀWKDWꢀSURJUDPꢀXVLQJꢀDꢀPRGL¿HGꢀYHUVLRQꢀRIꢀWKHꢀ/LEUDUy.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and

PRGL¿FDWLRQ follow. Pay close attention to the difference between

a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library".

The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the

latter must be combined with the library in order to run.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright

the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal

permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that

there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is

modi¿ed by someone else and passed on, the recipients should

know that what they have is not the original version, so that the

original author's reputation will not be affected by problems that

might be introduced by others.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,

DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or

other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright

holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed under

the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called "this

License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence

of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company

cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining

a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that

any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be

FRQVLVWHQWꢀZLWKꢀWKHꢀIXOOꢀIUHHGRPꢀRIꢀXVHꢀVSHFL¿HGꢀLQꢀWKLVꢀOLFHQVHꢂ

A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data

prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs

(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the

ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU

Lesser General Public License, applies to certain designated

libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public

License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit

linking those libraries into non-free programs.

The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work

which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on

the Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under

portion of it, either verbatim or with PRGL¿FDWLRQV and/or translated

End User License Agreement for Operating System Software

straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation

LVꢀLQFOXGHGꢀZLWKRXWꢀOLPLWDWLRQꢀLQꢀWKHꢀWHUPꢀꢃPRGL¿FDWLRQꢃꢂꢄ

to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or

collective works based on the Library.

"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work

for making PRGL¿FDWLRQV to it. For a library, complete source code

means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any

associated interface GH¿QLWLRQ ¿OHVꢇ plus the scripts used to control

compilation and installation of the library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the

Library with the Library (or with a work based on the LibraU\ꢄ on

a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the

other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General

Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the

Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this

License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public

License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version

than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has

appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.ꢄ

Do not make any other change in these notices.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are

not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of

running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output

from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a

work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library

in a tool for writing LWꢄꢂ Whether that is true depends on what the

Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's

complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided

that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy

an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep

intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence

of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with

the Library.

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for

that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to

all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.

This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of

the Library into a program that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or

derivative of it, under Section ꢈꢄ in object code or executable

form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that

you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-

readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms

of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for

software interchange.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,

and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange

for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any

portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and

copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms

of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these

conditions:

If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy

from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy

the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement

to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not

compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

Dꢄ 7KHꢀPRGL¿HGꢀZRUNꢀPXVWꢀLWVHOIꢀEHꢀDꢀVRIWZDUHꢀOLEUDUy.

Eꢄ You must cause the files modified to carry prominent

notices stating that you changed the ¿OHV and the date of

any change.

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the

Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled

or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such

a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and

therefore falls outside the scope of this License.

Fꢄ You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no

charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

GꢄꢀIf a facility in the PRGL¿HG Library refers to a function or a

table of data to be supplied by an application program that

uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when

the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith

effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not

supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and

performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.

(For example, a function in a library to compute square

roots has a purpose that is entirely well-de¿Qed independent

of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that

any application-supplied function or table used by this

function must be optional: if the application does not supply

However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library

creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because

it contains portions of the Libraryꢄ, rather than a "work that uses

the library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.

Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header

¿OH that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be

a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is

not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can

be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The

WKUHVKROGꢀIRUꢀWKLVꢀWRꢀEHꢀWUXHꢀLVꢀQRWꢀSUHFLVHO\ꢀGH¿QHGꢀE\ꢀODw.

If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data

structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small

inline functions (ten lines or less in lHQJWKꢄꢇ then the use of the

object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a

derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus

SRUWLRQVꢀRIꢀWKHꢀ/LEUDU\ꢀZLOOꢀVWLOOꢀIDOOꢀXQGHUꢀ6HFWLRQꢀꢉꢂꢄ

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If

GHQWL¿DEOH sections of that work are not derived from the Library,

and can be reasonably considered independent and separate

works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply

to those sections when you distribute them as separate works.

But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole

which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole

must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other

licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every

part regardless of who wrote it.

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may

distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section

6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,

whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest

your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine

or link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce

a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that

work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit

If the Library specifies a version number of this License which

applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries

If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest

possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software

that everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by

permitting redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under

the terms of the ordinary General Public License).

To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library.

It is safest to attach them to the start of each source ¿le to most

effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each ¿OH should

have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full

notice is found.
