Fedora :: FC11 Adding Extra Spell Check Languages In Gnome Apps And Evolution
Jun 11, 2009
Adding extra spell check library's in FC 11 Gnome is really easy.
Open gnome terminal.
Su to root or use sudo :
# su
Search with yum to your language:
# yum search hunspell
<snip long output list with different languages>
hunspell-nl.noarch : Dutch hunspell dictionaries
I want the Dutch hunspell dictionary, but you fill out the right language for the language support you want: # yum install hunspell-nl
This will install the dutch hunspell dictionary or the dictionary of your choice. After you installed this dictionary it will be immediately available in gnome apps and Evolution.

Just a little thing to make my Lynx Lucid installation perfect
I find it annoying when using Aspell in Evolution to have to check through the whole text before I arrive on the word that I need to check. Of course Aspell goes through all the headers in the email etc.
Is there any other alternative, or way of setting up the spelling preferences to make it possible to highlight a word and check it directly (like for instance Thunderbird does on other not to be mentioned systems)?

Sometime earlier this week, after an Update Manager update, spell check in Evolution broke.
It started underlining all words, even simple ones like "the".
I Googled around and found this article: [URL]
First, I did as recommended: 'Then go to "Edit | Preferences | Composer Preferences | Spell Checking", and enable the available languages." I found a list of languages and found that the USA version of English was enabled.
It then says, "You can also check gnome-enabled dictionaries by using gconf-editor. The GConf key /GNOME/Spell/language should contain a space-separated list of the languages you have enabled (i.e. en-US es for US english and Spanish)."
No such key found in GConf.
I followed the next instruction ("you could also try the hard way: Shut Evolution down by closing Evolution and then using the command evolution --force-shutdown. After that, run gconftool-2 --unset /GNOME/Spell/mtime.") which I did, gfcontool-2 --unset /GNOME/Spell/mtime returned with no error or comment.
But now, spell check isn't working at all, even misspelled words are not flagged, and "Edit | Preferences | Composer Preferences | Spell Checking" shows no languages to select from.
Finally, the instructions say, "If all this does not help, remove the file $HOME/.gconf/GNOME/Spell/%gconf.xml so all your spellchecking settings get deleted. The file gets recreated and according to some users on the Evolution mailing list, spellchecking should work again"
I found no "Spell" directory under "$HOME/.gconf"
I'm not a terrible speller, but do miss the okashunal werd, so having the spell checker working again would be useful.

I am trying to check spelling in a text document, but gedit (v. 2.28.0) reports every word as incorrect. When I check the "autospell" option, it highlights the entire document. When I try to set the language, the language list is empty. I do have aspell and aspell-en installed, but gedit seems to ignore them. aspell works fine from the command line. The SpellChecker plugin is installed. Anyone has an idea what might be missing? Some env variable is not set correctly? Any other leads? (I am on Fedora 12).
I wouldn't be asking, but I'm tuning this up for someone who isn't command-line-knowledgeable.

The spell check function in AbiWord doesn't seem to work. Is there a package I should download in order to get it to work?

New install from downloaded DVD. sound played after install. Installed rhymbox, which tried to install the various nonfree packages. I didn't have the keys installed so it failed miserably. From various websites I've used yum to install nonfree packages to support mp3. I now have both movieplayer and rhymbox which have no sound. Even more strangely, rhymbox 'slider' which follows the playtime remaining, simply doesn't move? Tried remove/re-install rhymbox to no avail.

I am translating some po-files and I would like to run a spell checker over them. I have Ubuntu 10.10 and use gtranslator. As far as I know, gtranslator can't spellcheck the whole file.
I tried ispell: $ ispell lordsawar-0.2.0-pre4.de.po - this doesn't work, as English and German strings, as well as some programming-relevant comments appear in the .po-file.
Do you know any program running on Ubuntu which can spell check po-files?

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 (netbook remix) in italian. The spell checker of gEdit does not work anymore as it used to, neither in italian nor in english. It actually sort of works, but the vocabulary is really limited; it cannot recognize words as simple as 'points' and 'starting'.
I have the following packages installed:
Code:
aspell
aspell-en
aspell-it
libaspell15
libgtkspell0
myspell-en-gb
myspell-it
language-pack-en
language-pack-en-base
language-pack-it
language-pack-it-base
language-pack-gnome-en
language-pack-gnome-en-base
language-pack-gnome-it
language-pack-gnome-it-base
language-support-en
language-support-it
language-support-writing-en
language-support-writing-it
What am I missing?

The spell checker on my installation of open office 3.0 writer in Ubuntu 9.04 amd64 doesn't work. I have been through the options route, following the buit in help and set to english. That didn't work. I have been online, using the link from inside the program, and put a new version of the dictionary on my desktop and added it and that didn't work either. I have also reinstalled the whole thing via synaptic and that didn't work either. Using abword in the meantime but would rather have open office working again. In all three cases the gui seems to think all is well but when I check a page of garbage words am told that the check is complete. I can not use the enable tab as writer seems to think that the dictionary is present and enabled anyway. Does anyone know what may be wrong in my setup or have a fix for this?

With the language set to either English (United States) or English (United Kingdom) ALL words are underlined in red, as though they are misspelled. I have ended up turning off the spell checker as it is so annoying. Checking Google it seems this is a know problem but there doesn't seem to be a solution for it.

So the more I use GNOME the more I fall in love with it. Including the default GNOME web browser, epiphany. Its clean and fast and that's the most important thing to me.
There are at least two things I'd like to customize that I can't seem to figure out.
The first is I'd like to see if there is a way to make epiphany spell check text boxes automatically, preferably like the default in many modern applications that it does as you type and underlines things that are mispeilled, but I'd deal with some sort of "right click to spell check" or something like that.
Secondly, I'd like to tell Epiphany that when a hyperlinks directs to OPEN IN NEW WINDOW that it opens in new tab instead.

I'm running Redhat 5 which is running as an email server with Lotus Domino 8.5. Its a VM on ESX 3.5. The server was running out of space to so I added a new hardrive and mounted it to /domino/mail2, everything was fine for a couple of days, but then the machine became unresponsive, I couldn't even see anything on the console screen so I rebooted, it then did a file check and everything came up fine. This has now happened 2 more times over the past few days, I haven't seen any evidence that the extra disk is the problem but if I can't find anything else I will remove it and see if the problem goes away. There isn't really a consistent time it occurs.
Here's the output of the logs from the last time it happened if anybody who know more about this stuff then me ( which isn't a lot) wants to take a quick look as see if the problem is obvious or what I could be trying.
Mar 2 00:17:30 DOM2 kernel: mptscsih: ioc0: attempting task abort! (sc=ce6afbc0)

This is the issue: when replying to someone, the cursor defaults to the beginning of the date line (on date this and this, that and that wrote:...), and I have to press enter twice, and then up-key twice, to bring it to a proper situation where I can start replying.
Today the issue is a bit better, since I am using GVIM for editing, so I can just press O (or make any other good mapping for my needs), but I am using GVIM only for English emails (since with Hebrew it is not really... hmm... useful, still), so the problem remains.
I know it is a very "little" issue - but come on, 9 years and no solution?!
In general, it would be nice to allow one to customize completely the "date line"; for example, to allow one to decide that his reply line will begin like this:
(two empty lines, after the cursor!)

I have a BIG extended partition. It's at about 750Gb. Aside from that, I have 2 unallocated spaces, one at 240Gb and one at 5Gb. I want to make one of my storage drives bigger, and so that I can take advantage of all the space I have. (Those 250Gb have been unused for ages. I want to use them for my growing libraries.) So I wonder: would it be safe to put these smaller "chunks" into the extended partition, and still have a working systen? I don't want to mess it all up.
Also, can I safely resize a partition, like adding the extra space, without touching the existing data? I'm not exactly sure how the resize/move function in GParted works. Will it wipe and extend or only extend it by adding it? It would be nice to have these questions answered. Also, if it's to any help, this is my partition table as of now:
[Code]....
As for the first entries, they're unallocated. They're the primary drives, but they don't exist. I'm actually considering to move my partitions out of the extended one, because I only have 3 partitions that I use and will ever use. But if the extended partition is not a problem, I will just keep it this way.
I'd imagine that I first extend the extended partition to consume the unallocated space, and then I move it all to the end of the partition, and then resize sda7 to consume it, and get a 750Gb partition. Can this be done without loss of data?

fedora 13, Gnome, with the exception of Kdenlive... I need to change to match my gnome theme... I work in a dark environment so I use a dark theme... nearly impossible to use kdenlive as is...
If I remember correctly there was a utility in KDE to make gnome apps look nice, but can't find anything like that for gnome, can't find kcontrol in safe repos for some reason, maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing

Just upgraded to Fedora 15 this afternoon, and for the most part there weren't any serious issues with it (except for rpmfusion lagging on a F15 yum repo). I installed the XFCE spin, and a lot of GNOME-specific apps don't respect my GTK+ theme at all. Screenshot: [URL]... On the left are two "XFCE" apps (Mousepad and Task Manager), on the right are two GNOME apps (gedit and the NetworkManager "Connection Information" window). Is there an easy way to fix this? I have a custom Murrine theme set, but the problem is still there using the built-in themes such as Glossy too.

I don't want to install alacarte to do this. I've copied the .desktop files from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications that I don't want appearing in the gnome 3 applications list (e.g., email settings for evolution), and added 'NoDisplay=true' to the end of each desktop file. Restarted gnome shell, even tried logging out and back in, but they still appear there. Previously, in gnome2, desktop files under the home dir superceded the global directory. Do I need to edit them directly as root to effect the changes, or could this be a selinux problem?

Where do I look to change the calendar preference in Gnome Shell from Evolution to Osmo? I have uninstalled Evolution and installed Osmo. I have looked in all of the settings available in System Settings, Tweak Advanced Settings, Alacarte, and Configuration Editor (gconf-editor), but I am obviously overlooking something.
Is it safe to delete all references to evolution when I find them in gconf-editor? I assume I would have to do that as root since it does not seem like trying to do so as a regular user works.
What I want to do is when I click on the date/time on the top bar and select "Open Calendar", Osmo will open. Right now I just get a message: "Execution of 'evolution' failed: command not found." Of course it would fail since I removed evolution. However, I can't seem to find out where to change it to look for Osmo instead.

I am new to XFCE and I'd like to ask few question about usage:
1. How can I disable dragging windows through workspaces? I like them to stay at one.
2. How do you configure startup applications?
3. Why XFCE menu doesn't show some of my custom icons? (png, tried more than one, for custom launcher - eclipse)
4. How do I add custom keyboard? (ALT+SHIFT switching)
5. I restarted laptop and all my applications re-opened after restart. I do not want that. How to disable this?
