Linux-Specific Issues

Supervertaler is Linux compatible, but Windows is the primary development platform.

Spellcheck dictionaries

If spellcheck isn’t working, you may need to install Hunspell dictionaries for your language:

sudo apt install hunspell-en-us

If the dictionary package for your language exists, install it using the language code you need (for example hunspell-de-de, hunspell-nl, etc.).

Stability tips

If you encounter instability:

• Disable spellcheck temporarily
• Disable semantic memory features temporarily
• Use a smaller project to isolate the issue

Crashes / memory access violations

Some native dependencies (spellcheck backends, tokenization libraries) can crash the Python process on certain Linux setups.

If you see random crashes (segfaults) when interacting with the grid:

1. Disable spellcheck and restart
2. Retry on a smaller project

If that stabilizes the app, re-enable features one by one.
