Don't know about Xubuntu, but it works for me on Gutsy. Try 'which aspell' and maybe 'aspell --version' in a terminal to make sure it's installed correctly. Then check Tools - Preferences... - Language settings - Spellchecker - Spellchecker executable and make sure it's set to either 'aspell' or 'aspell (library)'. HTH, Paul
