Mark,
There's some dictionaries you've got to include to allow for the spell
check to work in OO.o... From memory, try:
# emerge -DNuva aspell-en
# emerge -DNuva hunspell
I'm sure there's more to include, but I can't remember them. Don't
forget to restart OO.o to pick up the new dictionaries...

Hi,
On my dad's machine - 350 miles remote from me - he reports that
spell checking has ceased to work. In Evolution the option to check is
grey'ed out. In Open Office he says it acts like it's spell checking
but isn't doing anything and completes with spelling mistakes.
