If it's ok with you guys I'm going to keep on with this as I really need to get it working.
I now have the following rpms installed; ispell-3.1.20-297 aspell-en-gb-0.33.7.1-ximian.3 gnome-spell-0.4-ximian.1 pspell-devel-0.12.2-ximian.6 pspell-0.12.2-ximian.4 aspell-0.33.7.1-ximian.3 I should point out that I had to force aspell to install using --nodeps as it complains bitterly about a missing libltdl.so.0. The only rpm I could find containing this was for red-hat 7.1 (I run SuSE 7.1). Even after installing it aspell still complained. Please let me know what else I need to do to get this working?
