aspell

[smoreau]

I switch 3 machines from mandriva to mageia, using partitions already dedicated to mandriva without formating home partitions. I used three different CDs i586, live Cd and the x86-64. Al the three machines run now under Mageia. There has been no particular problems other than those linked to the use of nvidia proprietary drivers and flashplayer on the 64 bit machine. Curiously on the three machines aspell rpms were not installed.
In conclusion very good job of the team Mageia.

Yes very simply I used kmail, and it wa

sn't there (i guess).

But you could easily install afterwards?

Sorry for the preceding post.

So I used kmail and it was unable to realize spelling checking when writing the mail. i checked the different options of kmail composer, all were active. So i looked at the rpm (through MCC) and i saw that neither aspell nor aspell.fr were installed. Their installation solved the problem.

For the kmail, i dont know for your case specially but the option for the default spellchack has to be checked in systemsettings
