By Johan Borg. Wednesday, 11. April 2007, 09:31:55
Finally! 9.2 is launched today. Thank you all for valuable help in making this happen!
9.2 is not only an important update with bug fixes and the new Speed Dial functionality, it's also a milestone in spreading Opera to new users around the world: Opera 9.2 for Windows ships with 31 languages
The latest addition is Macedonian, so if you know the language, feel free to post a small celebration message in the comments section
Remember that we also have a number of forums where you can discuss Opera in your own language.
If you haven't done so already, please go to opera.com/download and get your brand new Opera.

The issue is know - you can work around it by not using multi-word nicknames.

Widgets:
What version do i have ? Is it latest ?
Automatic update ?
Options (ex: gmail login info) ?
Compare to FF add-on manager.
What's that blue icon in address bar ? Something about widgets i presume ? Hints please ?
This orange one is something about RSS feeds. Which one ? Can i get an address ? Maybe even a title (if available) ?
Ok, enough for today, don't want to scare you
What are your plans for build 10k ? Big party ?

Great.
pavlac # 11. April 2007, 15:40
Here's example
http://www.microsoft.com/poland/windows/ie/using/howto/oe/setup.mspx
Opera will open that address only if I download setup.mspx like Opera wants. That's makes me crazy!

however, what if i've got a bookmark that's with the nickname of digits [1-9]?
the speed dial page will load but not the bookmark with nickname of that digit..
tiny chink..

I'm really a beginner in Linux (Ubuntu), but i've downloaded the debi package and there's an error message
Conflicts with the installed package : Opera ;
I can't install/refresh my Opera
illiad # 11. April 2007, 16:23
GeekK: I am sure I saw on the community forum, delicious showing how opera can use it's bookmarks...

my hdd is full and when i download a file, opera only stops and give me the information that there is: an "error".
but what and why? after 15 minutes i found the reason.
can you change the message of the advance-status "error" to "full hdd" or something more useful in the download-manager ?!?

Most likely you have opera-static installed and you are trying to install the shared package. Either uninstall your current opera-static and then install the new Opera 9.20 shared package or download the opera-static build and install it instead of the shared one.

funny that so many of you are asking this question. first of all, there was another build squeezed in between 8767 and 8771...that would be build 8769.
@illiad
I don't think that zoligrg89 had a *wish* in his/her post.
@zoligrg89
Did you try removing the program first? That might solve your problem. Otherwise, if your previous version of Opera is working then just open up the irc chat and you can get some live help via the opera channel.

It's been so long since I've had to use the FTP site 'cause of the weeklies that I'd forgotten about it, but that's where I'd eventually got Build 638.

Don't know about others but i use only that mode of widgets display. Reference: Bug #259707.

In my case "the fastest" is more and more slower than FF.
Since the great 8.x things slowed down ... I see now js menus running significantly slower than FF let's say (see menus from nvidia site). I saw some interesting js speed test claiming that Opera's js implementation is actually the fastest there is ... but still ... what I feel is quite the opposite.
I do not have benchmarks of any kind to back up my claims. I only state what browsing feel like from subjective point of view.
Simple things like going to yahoo mail logging page (I don't mean entering the creepy beta) shows Opera spending significantly more time in negociating the secured session than FF is (and is not because site checking!)... about three times slower (negociating a lot at about 80 Bytes/s from +100 kB/s available is a bit strange ... ).
I used to be convinced that Opera has the best rendering engine of them all but I see sites like looneytunes (reported on this blog before) taking opera to the "crashing zone" and FF still holding fine.
And the settings/tunnings should not be to blame ... I use the default settings available in both browsers. If something is to be changed than it should have been already in defaults.
So, what is wrong with this picture?

Crossing fingers for first 64Bit linux release on friday

Of course you have limited time and can't take care of all wishes at once, but I consider this one issue more like reporting a bug than requesting a new feature.
For the rest of this version, I will have to explore...

Opera is up to date... (yeah...)
Latest is Windows build 8771, isn't it?
Rafał Miłecki # 11. April 2007, 19:02
@borg: You are looking in it? You definitely have to slow down. I have only something about 5 wishes left, need time to think about next before you made my 5 ;-)

Not fixed yet, not sure what you have modified in that version, but it doesn't wor since then :-)
I might give you some permissions into my admin panel so you can check yourself or so...

shoover # 11. April 2007, 19:19
I'm using the 9.10 release, build 8679, and it tells me the same thing. ;-)
Sander Evers # 11. April 2007, 19:29
And to the others complaining that site x doesn't work (correctly) that's for 90% because of bad coding of the site's pages. Most sites are created to be viewed in IE or FireFox, and other browsers will/might show them incorrectly. Recently, I had a strange bug on my site. But after checking the code twice, I figured that it was my own fault. So, if it's your site that works incorrectly, check your code. If it's not, contact the site's administrators.
And to the Desktop Team, Good job guys! I love the new version

I can't think of one single really CRITICAL bug that MUST be fixed ASAP.
Also, all software is "buggy", and released with known bugs. It is a fact of life. Firefox is always released with known bugs, just like Opera, and just like all other programs.

The test page at http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp correctly displays:
Java Runtime Version1.6.0_01
The Java test at http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml is lacking the "dancing Duke logo image".
The route planner at http://rp.rac.co.uk/ never finishes loading the interactive (Java) map.
The page http://map24.com/ causes Opera to hang or shutdown.
All of these work in IE7.
Anyone else could confirm?

J.Z. Herrenberg # 11. April 2007, 21:38
I use Java 1.5.10 on a WinXP SP2 system and don't experience any difficulty.
Perhaps the 1.6 version is to blame for your difficulties? I seem to remember on the Forum people saying something along these lines.
For the rest - I like 9.2, although I'm still wedded to my Start bar...

I don't have any problems with mentioned websites. Everything works perfect!
