For some weird reason, Firefox as packaged by Gentoo doesn't support dictionaries. It only supports hunspell (or aspell, can't remember) which you need to install first along with dictionaries for it. After you do that, you will get a gazillion of English dictionaries that you can't disable. You'll need to live with it, since no one cares about this bug.
Thank you. I'll try the aspel or hunspell dictionaries. Best regards Francisco
