Usually when gedit is installed, it contains and option to autocheck spelling. This includes when it is installed on other desktop environments than GNOME. At this moment I am running XUbuntu 11.04 on my desktop box and gedit contains the autocheck menu item in the "tools" menu. However, after installing gedit on my netbook running Lubuntu 11.10, I find that the autocheck option is missing. Is this a general issue with gedit or is it related to installing gedit on Lubuntu 11.10 where the problem lies? What ccan be done about it?

Do you need to activate the plugin?

There is indeed a plug-in, but it isn't possible to change preferences. It is just either checked or unchecked. The plug-in has supported autocheck spelling for as long as I can remember, so it is weird that the option suddenly isn't available anymore.
