Re: [Evolution] Spellchecking

[Peter Ellis <terra ix netcom com>]

I'm using SuSE Professional 9.1, but these instructions should apply for
9.0.

If you open SuSE's Yast utility (for me, it's under the System menu in
KDE), then go to Install/Remove Software.  There should be a "Filter"
drop down box -- change that to Search,  Search for "gnome-
spell" (without the quotes) -- that should give you a checkbox for that
package.  Check the checkbox, then search again for "aspell".  You're
looking for aspell-en, aspell-fr, and the mail aspell package.  Check
the checkboxes next to those package names and click "Install".  You'll
be prompted for whatever installation media you used in your initial
system install.

Hope this works for you.  If not, I'd be perfectly happy to help you do
it the hard way (via the command line).
