Hmm.. my golded starts up in the message area list. There is no key to do a spell check. Your spelling is checked as you type. Misspelled words show up as white and other words show up as normal. LGrey in my case.

I would check the directory you have set for SCheckerDicPath, my /usr/share/hunspell directory has these files amoung others..

en_AU.aff
en_AU.dic
en_CA.aff
en_CA.dic
en_GB-ise.aff
en_GB-ise.dic
en_GB-ize.aff
en_GB-ize.dic
en_GB.aff@
en_GB.dic@
en_US.aff
en_US.dic

Also check that your SCheckerDefLang is set to one of the above, I suspect en_GB in your case.

 Ttyl :-),
