For the spellchecker, only the third option ("use alternative language" in the
spellchecker options) is relevant.
LyX tries to be clever and takes the name of the document language as ispell
language option. This works sometimes, if the name of the babel file and the
name of the ispell/aspell dictionary are identical. Often, they are not (cf.
"german" vs. "deutsch"), and spell checking fails, unless you tell LyX the
actual name of the dictionary.
