What do I need to install in order to get the Evolution spell checker? Or is SuSE's version of Evolution broken?
Thanks, Avi -- Avi Schwartz Avi@CFFtechnologies.com
Had originally posted the following comments in February. At that time the method was quite reliable. The success ratio has dropped significantly since then, so I would treat the following as merely a starting point: ****************************************** This 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. ********************************************* HTH. ps if you do find a reliable method of getting spell checking to work post a comment to the list, as my wife is not pleased that I have evolution spell checking working on my computer and not hers. -- Ralph Sanford - If your government does not trust you, rsanford@telusplanet.net - should you trust your government?
