Fantasdic is another dictionary client package in the ubuntu repositories. My configuration as far as I can tell is correct; it is the same configuration which was working before I upgraded to jaunty. The dictd daemon is running fine. Other dictionary clients such as fantasdic and dict can access the dictd server at localhost on port 2628. But for some reason when I create a new dictionary source in gnome-dictionary with 'localhost' as hostname and '2628' as port, it gives me the following error when I search for a definition: "Error while looking up definition. Connection failed to the dictionary server at localhost:2628." If there is anything further you need to diagnose the problem please let me know.
