How does turning undead work if the character has levels in both Cleric & Paladin. Say he was a 5th level War Cleric and then he became a paladin and is now 10th level.
Does he combine his turn attempts per day, does he combine levels/ and what happens if he takes Extra turning? Does he get 4 extra per day, or 4 extra per day per class?
Does he combine his turn attempts per day
The classes are handled seperately, I believe. He can turn as many times/day as a cleric (3+charisma bonus, independent of level), and additionally as many times/day as a paladin.
If he takes Extra turning? Does he get 4 extra per day, or 4 extra per day per class?
Just 4/day. Not per class.
See p59 of the Player's Handbook under "Class Features."

In the special case of turning undead, both clerics and experienced paladins have the same ability. If the character’s paladin level is 4th or higher, her effective turning level is her cleric level plus her paladin level minus 3.
Well, hm. Looks like darthslyver and I failed to read the same portion of the book.
With multi-class characters even though a skill is a class skill for one class, it still costs 2 skill points to increase by 1 rank if it is a cross-class skill for the 2nd class and you are spending skill points from the 2nd class. Yes or No.
While I have your attention Cam, clarify somethng for me. To acquire class skills cost 1 skill point for 1 rank for class skills, and 2 skill points for 1 rank in a cross-class skill.

Well I'm not Cam, but I have an answer for you anyways. Officially speaking when spending skill points you should worry soley about what skills are class for the class providing the skill points. ie. Bob the Dwarf, fighter/rogue wants to take another level in fighter, when spending the skill points from the level increase, only apply the fighter's list of class skills, not the rogue.
That being said, I dont worry about these things, once a character has proficiency in a skill, it doesnt matter to me. But thats my personal dming style, not the way the books say it works.
Do note that the skill cap for a skill is the best out of all of the classes you have, not the one you've added, so once a skill is a class skill for at least one of your classes the maximum number of ranks you may have in that skill is your character level +3.

The krynnish Gnome (Tinker Gnome). The stats presented in the DLCS, do they replace the normal stats (as I think) or are they in addition to the normal gnome stats?
Same question for the Thinker gnomes.
That is what I thought. And I know it will seem like I am constantly coming up with questions but here is another.

They completely replace standard PHB gnomes.

It's in the DLCS.

Question: does the Dark Dwarves racial skill bonuses replace the dwarves normal skill bonuses on Appraise and Craft (stone or metal related) or are they in addition to.
In addition to, by the wording of the racial traits description, but I'm unsure if we've ever done that in stat blocks. It's possible that the skills line in the DLCS replaces that of the PHB.

Will these rules be clarified in the Races of Ansalon?
Everything racial will be clarified in Races of Ansalon.
