I still can't get spellchecking to work with this patch. Launching LyX from the terminal, I get the following message there when I try to spellcheck: ForkedProcess::kill(5) Can't kill non-existent process! Error: Spellchecker error ---------------------------------------- The spellchecker could not be started The ispell process returned an error. Perhaps it has been configured wrongly ? After dismissing the dialog in LyX saying that the spellchecker can't be started, I get the following message in the terminal: Dialog.cpp(129): Dialog "spellchecker" failed to translate the data string passed to show() BH
