Sounds like the french dictionary is not available. Do you use ispell or aspell (Bearbeiten -> Einstellungen -> Sprache -> Rechtschreibung)? Install the french distionary for ispell/aspell from the SuSE CD, if you don't have already (check /usr/lib/ispell or /usr/lib/aspell). Starting LyX from the console might give you a spellchecker error which is more informative. HTH, Jürgen.
