    I have recently done the same update to Abiword 2 (positive I got all files) and like Keith it will not spell check anything at all.

    I have tried the same settings above and have marked selections with obvious spelling mistakes in them, run the spell check and, no matter the variation of scenario, it just keeps saying the check is complete but does not actually do the checking.

    My thought is that this is not so much a problem with Abiword as with the system recognising aspell-en as the dictionary?! I mean, I have ispell and aspell installed and spell checking works just fine in other word processors that use ispell. Perhaps there is a config required to 'find and use' aspell properly?

    Just a thought?!
    Paul.
