Mark, There's some dictionaries you've got to include to allow for the spell check to work in OO.o... From memory, try:
# emerge -DNuva aspell-en # emerge -DNuva hunspell I'm sure there's more to include, but I can't remember them. Don't forget to restart OO.o to pick up the new dictionaries... To see all the available dictionaries, try: # emerge -s spell HTH, ...Ric On 22/12/06, Mark Knecht <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, On my dad's machine - 350 miles remote from me - he reports that spell checking has ceased to work. In Evolution the option to check is grey'ed out. In Open Office he says it acts like it's spell checking but isn't doing anything and completes with spelling mistakes. I took a quick look in the forums but didn't spot anything very similar. Since this is OO-bin it's not like I do anything to add spell checking with USE flags. The environment is Gnome. The problem has been around in Evolution for awhile (since before his gcc-4.1.1. upgrade of last week) but is apparently new Open Office or at least this is the first I've heard about it. Is spell checking something that is provided by Gnome or is it driven by each application? Any config options I should go looking for? Thanks in advance, Mark -- [email protected] mailing list
