Re: [gNewSense-users] Thunderbird spell checker

[sam2025]

Thanks rsiddharth, I am spell checking now:)

The dictionary fix add-on didn't fix my issue (gave me a "can't copy 
file" error) but the link you provided pointed me to 
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Dictionaries#Troubleshooting which has steps 
to manually install a dictionary. It worked.  I think it was all a 
permission issue. The files had to be copied to  
/usr/lib/thunderbird/dictionaries (admin rights). 

I thought about using gNewSense 3.0 Beta 2 but the "Beta" part stopped me.
Since I don't know what I am doing, I opted for the older version hoping 
it would have more documentation/support.

Ok, 1 issue resolved, 3 more to go.
  thanks again
