mindlessly stupid question
 

Why doesn't my GAIM have spellcheck *cry* HAhaha.


:P

Default dropline gnome installation *sigh*

This saddens me. I loved that feature.

you can compile your own gaim with spell checking enabled.
download the source, do ./configure --help to see options,
and add the option to include support for spell checking;
then do a make, and make install.

good luck.
