more about opera on the olpc laptop
Wednesday, 10. January 2007, 20:11:14
After all the initial fun and excitement, work around Opera on the green machine makes progress. A few updates:We are investigating the nasty freezer that kills the whole machine: our static builds are made with gcc 2.95 (try opera --full-version to see the details) to ensure Opera running also on older distros - a special internal build made with gcc 4.1 does not exhibit the problem. Now we need to see if we find the needle in the haystack that causes havoc, so that it can be properly fixed.
To nicely fit into the Sugar environment Opera is also getting a new skin and a new toolbar setup - you can see a preview snapshot of the work in progress taken with xwd before the OLPC Build update to 212 - after the update I seem not to be able to take screenshots anymore, they all result in corrupted dumps… A few tabs open, including newsfeeds - and yes, I told you: you have all of the desktop features available…

Can you confirm that when the mouse touches the screen edge, the Frame appears ?

About the Frame, yes, I confirm - and that makes the toggling of panels with the mouse, in the way we have it on desktop, not a good solution.
