Opera in Linux: Sidebuttons not working

Saturday, 4. July 2009, 16:05:53

Had a problem with sidebuttons on my mouse not working for back and forward (button6 and button7).

Got it fixed:
In the /usr/share/opera/ini/standard_mouse.ini file, there are the two lines:

Button6    = Back 
Button7    = Forward

Comment those out or remove them, and add:

Button8    = Back 
Button9    = Forward

Voila!

Fixing Speed Dial

Tuesday, 13. March 2007, 21:25:39

speed dial, dial, speeddial, speed ...

I've recently downloaded Opera 9.20, the first fucked up thing that I experienced is the disappearing of Speed Dial links...

My solution was to do the following:

I went to C:\Documents and Settings\Vladislav\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\, opened speeddial.ini, added my crap to it:

Opera Preferences version 2.1
; Do not edit this file while Opera is running
; This file is stored in UTF-8 encoding

[Speed Dial 1]
title=Google
url=http://www.google.com/ig?hl=nl

[Speed Dial 2]
title=Gmail
url=http://mail.google.com/mail/?disablechatbrowsercheck=1

[Speed Dial 3]
title=Google Reader
url=http://www.google.com/reader/view/

[Speed Dial 4]
title=Tuplad’s Profile - Users at Last.fm
url=http://www.last.fm/user/Tuplad/

[Speed Dial 5]
title=Tuplad @ MySpace
url=http://myspace.com/tuplad

[Speed Dial 6]
title=del.icio.us
url=http://del.icio.us/Tuplad

[prefs]
folded=0

Saved it and made it read-only.

Ta-daaaaa!

Recovering Opera settings if you had Multi User before

Sunday, 11. March 2007, 20:43:13

I've recently upgraded Opera to 8.02, and I dont know what went wrong, but it installed itself as Single-User.

I saw that all my settings, bookmarks, mails & chats are gone ->

.

I've opened the file named OperaDef6.ini, and found this:

So I changed it to this:

I restarted Opera ...

All settings are back

But remember:idea: It only works if you had a Multi-User settings BEFORE you installed the new version of Opera

.

Hope this helped.

PS: You can find the settings stored in this folder:
X:\Documents and Settings\Your Username\Application Data\Opera\.
