Re: [Evolution] Spell problems take two

[Jeff Soule <jsoule webcrossing com>]

Thanks,

I already tried reinstalling pspell, aspell and gnome-spell :-(
The strange thing is that it works for root and not my own less
privilaged login...  I realy need a spelling checker as I don't spell
well at all.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
/Jeff
