I don't mean to be abrupt, but I'm quite satisfied that I have  
completed
all the required steps, and documented them, in the bug report.
I have successfully installed and select Australian dictionaries  
on all
our 12 Windows 2000 PCs running OpenOffice, all the way from  
OOo-1.9.69
till now. Repeating the same steps, I am unable to *select* an
Australian dictionary for OOo-2.x under Linux.

See the bug report. Seriously.


Well, I'm running OOo2.0.1 on Linux and it works fine after  
downloading
the en-AU dictionary. If you want to tell me exactly what you're doing
from the point after you install OOo2 I'll try to reproduce it.

Don't direct me to the bug report though - it's too long and confused
now.

Agreed. I am with a client, so tried it on their Linux machine as a  
"clean"
environment compared to mine. We went through the process as you
would expect for a new user.

1. Download AU dictionary via File > Wizards > Install New Dictionary.
2. Restarted OOo as it mentioned.
3. Went in and configured the Language > Writer Aids to enable the
    the AU language.
4. (Seemed we had to restart here for it to take affect for some  
reason?)
5. Updated the default paragraph style to reflect AU English
6. Saved as default template

All working - standard spellcheck, auto-spellcheck all worked fine.

Regards
Jonathon
