Is the nynorsk dictionary installed on your Ubuntu system? What are  
the values of ispell-local-dictionary and ispell-library-directory?  
What is GNU Emacs showing in *Completions* buffer when you type

	M-x ispell-change-dictionary RET TAB

The values shown are the dictionaries found on your system in the  
directory pointed by ispell-library-directory.


Have you checked whether the modes of the buffers that use american  
for ispell do *not* change ispell-dictionary? Have you checked  
whether your buffer do *not* set ispell-dictionary locally? Are you  
sure that your setting of ispell-dictionary in ~/.emacs is executed?  
Some (message ...) might help.
