Opera 9.22 released

, , , ,

Hey
We released 9.22 today and it's a recommended security update.
Changelogs:

* Windows: http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/windows/922/
* Mac: http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/mac/922/
* Linux/UNIX: http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/linux/922/

Bit Torrent also received some nice improvements, so it should be quite a bit faster now.

Thank you all for participating in the weekly testing..
Looking forward to serving you some fresh Kestrel builds soon.

We look forward to testing them "soon" too! Do you mean, "soon", as in next week? ;-)

Yea really. We should officially change the name (sometimies, unstable builds, whenever-we-get-around-to-its, when-they're-readies, etc). If they drop 26 in a year, I'd be surprised. (There are 52 weeks in a year for those who didn't catch the correlation)

I'm upgrading... Seems I've skipped a build somewhere.

I have filed a bug several versions back. But this bug never was fixed.

BitTorrent is unfunctional!

1) it seems, byte counters, received/transmitted, are always stuck to zero - at least for multifile torrents, but maybe for single files too.

2) if multifile torrent has files with non-Latin letters (for example in russian) - Opera turns the filenames into garbage.
AFAIU the filenames in torrents are in UTF-8, Opera passes them to OS file API, so filenameswould be binary UTF-8 and for the user - that would be garbage, dependent on current locale of OS.
So in Linux turned set with UTF-8 locale - by chance it would be ok, in Windows, Linux/KOI8, Linux/cp-1251 - that would be hardly accessible files with corrupt names.

what were the changes between build 8800 and 8801? Tanks :smile:

By jonspencerbx, # 19. July 2007, 16:38:05

Thanks, now I hope to find a present tomorrow !!

I see that the number of windows build in the upper left part of the page is still 8800.

By SoulOfDoinel, # 19. July 2007, 17:04:28

avatar
I think that is because the last build **on this blog** is 8800...

go here for the final, build 8801 (it is not a 'preview', so it is not on the blog!!)

and talk about it here!!

the next one here will be 8802 or higher!! :D

SignUp at the bottom of Opera page - I must click middle mouse button to work. Click by left doesn't work.

www.onet.pl - ok, I don't like commercials, but where they are? I like to block content myself, not by browser.

I just noticed that this latest released version as well as the last 2 weekly versions won't function at all on Yahoo's new Beta upgraded Personal pages... to get there the link is http://cm.my.yahoo.com/ and you just get a blank page...

Confirmed. I had to use FF to revert back and then deleted all yahoo cookies. Yahoo (my.yahoo.com) is becoming more trouble than it's worth.

It's the same story in 9.21...it just depends on what emulation you use. Unfortunately, Opera defaults to "Mask as FF" for my.yahoo.com, which is not the best choice (or at least it wasn't when I wrote about it in the thread below, which, of course, was ignored--I don't know how much of that information is still current, however).

http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=155359

If you put your emulation on "Opera" you'll at least be told that you have an unsupported browser (something we at least expect to see) instead of getting a blank window. You might want to experiment with other emulations, for example IE, which appears to get you there.

Interesting post. Unfortunately Opera's override_downloaded.ini file has my.yahoo.com set to User Agent|Spoof UserAgent ID=4. Note: I'm assuming I can't override this 'setting'.

By rwf, # 19. July 2007, 21:33:24

The My Yahoo beta lives at cm.my.yahoo.com, and you can set a different browser ID for this server in Site Preferences. Using 'Opera' as ID seems to work fine. This first guves you an 'unsupported browser' warning, but you can then click through to the My Yahoo beta website.

This is not a specific issue for 9.22 though, using the Forum thread for comments on it is better.

You mean Ctrl-F11 (Fit to width)

Yes, I noticed that too (some Live Spaces blogs being cut off--it's worse than just comments), though it's not specific to 9.22.

it's a recommended security update

Apparently not recommended for people using http://deb.opera.com/ or else someone at opera would have spent half a minute updating the repo.

I didn't expect many changes in 9.22 except BitTorrent related, so very surprised and happy to get Final with many fixes including especially security issues.
Congrats, Desktop Team. Next goals are Kestrel weeklies!

Though the thing is you get that every time if the emulation is on Opera, or at least I can't get rid of it, so it would be better set on IE. But however it's set it's incredibly slow in Opera so is not really usable anyway; I had to switch back to the classic version.

6.22 on Linux.... Most flawless and stable Opera version I have used since 6.x

Cheers!

Fine...thanks!

But I still have two problems:

* sometimes wrong images are displayed (from the cache?)
* when using Opera on two machines accassing the same mail accout with POP3 on the one and IMAP on the other PC the IMAP account is not updated correctly. After the startup it updated and from this time on it stays 'connected' when checking mails but there are not updates when fetching the mails via POP3.

Still the same regression with Flash: to demonstrate run the game at http://www.onemorelevel.com/games2/bubbleshooter.swf.

This used to work in build 8796, but not before and not after.

Anyone else? Or similar pages?

By yksyks, # 20. July 2007, 09:30:17

avatar
still the same pb with flash on linux

with a page with flash on it. just go to another tab. and you go back to the flash tab. you got grey instead of flash. (happens half the time ?)

or it happens simply when you open a new tab while still staying on the tab with the flash

even with flash 9.0.48.0

The upgrade installation (9.21 -> 9.22) did not "merge" the search configuration, but overwrote it :-(

Because I never had a problem with upgrades so far, I didn't make a backup of the old configuration. That was lazy ;-)
