    Thanks.

    I downloaded enchant-1.1.3-100.SuSE.ulb.2.i586.rpm from dependencies section,
    and yes, now it appears the spellchecker dialog.

    However, I still cannot spellcheck. Any word is unknown.

    I even followed Dom advise:

    -----------
    2) Install Ispell or Myspell dictionaries in a place
    Enchant will look for them. This includes:

    ~/.enchant/ispell
    ~/.enchant/myspell
    $prefix/share/enchant/ispell
    $prefix/share/enchant/myspell
    -------

    Tried the four combinations without success.

    cp -r /usr/lib/ispell/ /usr/lib/enchant/
    cp -r /usr/share/myspell/ /usr/lib/enchant/
    cp -r /usr/lib/ispell/ /home/alex/.enchant/
    cp -r /usr/share/myspell/ /home/alex/.enchant/

    What would be missing?
