Hi Lionel,

The spell checker on Write was disable due to bug
http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/4124

To enable, you need edit the file
/home/olpc/Activities/Write.activity/keybindings.xml
and remove the line:
<unbind-mappings handler="contextMisspellText"/>

If that do not work you need check:
* if the abiword rpm in your image was compiled with the option
--disable-spell or not
(a good test could be run abiword in the terminal and check if you can
enable spell check)
* you need check if a dictionary for French is needed.
Abiword can use aspell or ispell dictionaries
http://www.abisource.com/help/en-US/info/infospelling.html

Tell us the result of your test in your environment,
maybe is time of enable the feature again.

Gonzalo
