I thingk I have everything set up correctly. I removed all the mandrake spell packages and installed the RedHat 7.2 ones which seemed to work for one user. But it is still not working for me. These are the packages I have not installed:
[ujwal@vedanta ujwal]$ rpm -qa | fgrep spell gnome-spell-0.4-ximian.1 aspell-0.33.7-1 (RedHat 7.2) pspell-0.12.2-3 (RedHat 7.2) I have also enabled spell checking in the control panel. I am attaching a screenshot of the control panel. I am getting quite desperate to get this working. I am willing to hack source to dig deeper...
