Well, actually I am trying to spell an Estonian text, but the problem
with English was the same so I described that one.



Anyway, after installing the aspell-en package, I can spell English
text, though LyX still shows me that it is using ispell, and installing
aspell dictionaries should have changed nothing. Trying to spell
sometning in Estonian from LyX with ispell still cives complaints about
missing et_EE word list. Which is strange, because "en" and "et_EE" are
aspell terminology and as far as I know, ispell does not use such
naming of languages.



So in the end of the day, I suspect that LyX 1.3.6 has a bug of still
trying to use aspell, even if ispell is chosen in Preferences ->
Spellchecker. Or is is the problem between the chair and the
computer
Looks like your lyx decides to use aspell anyway - maybe ispell support
isn't compiled in or something?  There is an "aspell-et" with Estonian
spelling, perhaps you should try that.  Or is there some other reason for
sticking to ispell?

Lyx using aspell even when you specify ispell is a bug, consider registering
the bug at bugzilla.lyx.org
