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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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

What am I missing?

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)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe 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?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSometime 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.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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.
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?
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 using seamonkey composer to edit simple HTML. I can't get the spell check to work.

Open gnome terminal.
Su to root or use sudo :

Search with yum to your language:
# yum search hunspell

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.

But there's no problem with Firefox because I think it uses the Adobe Flash Player (the one in the repo) but Chromium uses the an built-in flash player.
Is there a way to fix this problem? Or a way to disable Chromium's built-in flash player and use the Adobe's flash player?
I recently installed Chromium and went to listen to one of my favorite podcasts, only to find that it wouldn't play. Like the title says, it plays perfectly well in Firefox. Is there some Chromium extension I need in order to play .mp3 files?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo far, as a former Chrome user on Windows, I am enjoying Chromium. However, there is one glaring problem that is bugging me, and is disrupting my usage of the browser.
Chromium will not show Japanese fonts properly. It's not that everything shows up as boxes. The problem is that certain characters will show in Japanese, and certain will show in Korean, thereby making the Japanese text unreadable. Copying and pasting into gedit allows me to read the Japanese text, and Firefox never had this problem, however, within Chromium, this is unreadable.
Here is a picture to show you what I mean:
Has anyone else had this problem, and fixed it? I have installed the language packs and have tried setting things to different unicode fonts and changing the encoding to unicode and even Japanese, and continue to get these errors.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.10. I am trying to work out how to add Chromium to the Unity Sidebar. With other applications, I can launch them, right-click the application icon in the sidebar and select "Keep in Launcher", however Google Chromium doesn't appear to have this option. Does anyone know how this can be achieved?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI often use the option in Chromium to create 'application shortcuts'. These are instances of Chromium that make a website look more like an app by not including most of Chromium's toolbars. I use it for gmail and google docs and spreadsheets and calendar. In 11.04 I have set up Desktop launchers and copied them across to the Launcher (what an odd way to add something to the launcher, why no right-click 'add launcher' option?)
The problem is that the launcher thinks all these apps are chromium (which they are really, but I would like them to be seen as separate apps). If I minimize my gmail window, a little triangle appears next to the chromium icon, not the gmail icon. To get the window back, I have to click on the Chromium icon. Clicking on the gmail icon launches a new instance of it (also tied to the Chromium icon).
if i run chromium with --enable-gpu-rendering flag chromium's display looks like it's shattered into thousands of pieces and I can't understand a thing. This doesn't happens if I have a previous instance of chromium opened in the usual way, without any flag. In this case if I open another chromium window with the --enable-gpu-rendering flag it's display looks ok, but I can't figure out what's the problem and how could this be fixed if there's solution for it of course.
