Hi,
I am having problems getting the spellchecker to work (Fedora 22) and
have removed my profile and generated a new one but still doesn't work.
Under "Writing Aid" I have the "Hunspell Spellchecker" marked but it
will not check a page/word.
I admit it did do the windoze thing and re-installed writer.
Any ideas as to how to get it to work?
Do check a document today I reverted to installing Abiword .... and that
worked OK!
Regards
-

I assume you are using you are talking about LibreOffice. What language
are you using (see under the Font tab for the Style)? Does it have an
ABS tick against it?
Have you installed the relevant dictionary?

I recently had a similar issue after a fresh install of Mint and
LibreOffice. ie Couldn't get the spell checker to work at all. I tried
several things that appeared popular in the support forums but nothing
worked. I tried installing new dictionaries but this didn't help either
as I couldn?t even select them from the LibreOffice menus which was more
than frustrating.
I cant remember the exact solution that got it working for me but I
remember un-installing all dictionaries and then reinstalling the
default one via the install manager and things working much better after
doing that.
regards
Russ

Hello luggers,
You will need the right language package for your language and spell
checker installed.
On my ubuntu system that package is libreoffice-l10n-en-gb and spell
checking just works.
I couldn't see a hunspell package for en-gb , only for various
americas and it wasn't installled on my system.
You might find it simpler to remove hunspell as i doubt its working on
en GB text.
You might find this site helpful if you need more than your distro is providing
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center?getCategories=Dictionary
Cheers
