The only thing missing from this list is to quit Evolution, (possibly also run killev and oaf-slay) then restart. I have spell checking working after following these directions a while back (SuSE 7.2 AND 7.3 :-) HTH, dg On Wed, 2002-02-06 at 23:29, Jim George wrote:

Can anyone give me a definitive (I know it sounds like I want it on a plate bu tI've chased this one round for so long now) answer as to how I get spell-checking working under evolution? TIA JimThis methods works for SuSE 7.2 and 7.3. If you are using SuSE try the following IN THE SEQUENCE LISTED: 1. using red carpet, rpm or whatever load pspell0.12.2-ximian.4 (not a newer version) 2. ftp the aspell and gnomespell rpm's from Ximian. 3. use Yast1 to install aspell and gnomespell (rpm --force might work, but I know that Yast definitely does and ignores the dependency) 4. using gnome control centre -> html viewer -> miscellaneous ensure that spell checking is enabled and that you have selected the language "en", not en-gb or en-ca. This should work, but only if you do it in sequence and possibly offer a sacrifice to the deity of your choice. -- Ralph Sanford - If your government does not trust you,I did all the above and now the following installed but unfortunately the spell checking option is still greyed out and the highlighting of miss-spelled words doesn't occur. Am I still being burnt by the missing libltdl file? Do you have any more ideas? ispell-3.1.20-297 gnome-spell-0.4-ximian.1 pspell-0.12.2-ximian.4 aspell-0.33.7.1-ximian.3 spellc-19960917-182 Kind regards, Jim George _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - evolution ximian com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
