Thanks a lot!

consalt 19. December 2007, 19:38

that's a good question

SoulOfDoinel 19. December 2007, 19:49

But 9694 is a 9.5 preview, 9.25 is 9.2 last release.
More stability for 9.25 but no new 9.5 features.
Am I wrong ?

arcy 19. December 2007, 19:56

Thanks :]
Merry Christmas :]

origPumu 19. December 2007, 19:57

I will keep my

Version 9.50 beta
Build 9694

Waiting for a new weekly.

Aleksandersen 19. December 2007, 20:04

64 bit is a new feature for the 9.5 linux builds. 64 bit is not available for 9.2x and unfortunately there are no 64 bit builds for vista at all...

devil-kin 19. December 2007, 20:20

Any chance of making the new flash plugin work on linux? It's rather annoying that it doesn't work...

haavard 19. December 2007, 20:34

devil_kin, have you tried the 9.5 snapshots?

p.mansoor 19. December 2007, 21:20

Just upgraded. Thanks :D

andresruiz 19. December 2007, 21:33

Hey thanks a lot for 9.25 !!
Upgraded

It's very unfortunate that Adobe broke compatibility with the current stable Opera releases... On the bright side, you might want to give the 9.5 snapshots a try, they work with the latest Flash release :smile:

sevillana 19. December 2007, 22:31

was hoping that Opera Link would be in 9.25 release :frown: Will have to wait a bit more.
Merry Christmas Desktop Team :smile:

trasz 19. December 2007, 22:58

And still no FreeBSD-7 version... ;-/

I-Beam 20. December 2007, 00:23

Does this break ACID2, or is something wrong on my installation?

EDIT: Apparently, there is a problem on the ACID2 web site.

EricJH 20. December 2007, 00:23

Installed it to be up and running; though I use 9.50 weeklies for all my surfing. Hardly touch the 9.2x series.

Gyrobo 20. December 2007, 00:49

9.25 doesn't pass ACID2 for me either, but ACID2 also breaks under Firefox 3 and Kestrel builds. The misrenderings appear identical. Did someone change ACID2?

Chase-san 20. December 2007, 03:09

That is strange, whats up with the ACID2?

consalt 20. December 2007, 06:54

Ha-ha, Microsoft fix acid2 for IE8. Now IE8 pass test (http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2007/12/19/internet-explorer-8-and-acid2-a-milestone.aspx). But only IE8. No others! :smile:

haavard 20. December 2007, 08:30

The test is currently broken, so if the current version is the one IE8 is working with it doesn't pass Acid2 after all.

Here's a proper version of Acid2:

crawen 20. December 2007, 09:00

Wonderful! Thank you! Been using 9.23 for a time now becaus of the textexpander-bug.

TuPLaD 20. December 2007, 09:50

I have a problem, after installing this Opera all my mail and RSS accounts are gone :frown:

Jazmo 20. December 2007, 14:44

How hard could it be to code automagig update system, like firefox has?
Surely it keeps browsers better up date.

Micky 20. December 2007, 15:07

TuPLaD: Did you choose Upgrade or Separate install? You apparently installed it separately in different folder. Search your old Opera folder and copy your old profile dir into new Opera folder.

haavard 20. December 2007, 18:33

TuPLaD: Did you install any other versions of Opera between 9.24 and 9.25? Any 9.5 alphas, betas or snapshots?

Jazmo, an automatic update system is hardly suitable for a minor security release, but wait and see... :smile:

xet7 20. December 2007, 18:39

How in Opera can I merge open windows to one window?
If it's not possible yet, could it be added?

jarinkirill 20. December 2007, 19:06

xet7, open «Windows» panel (hided by default), select with shift all pages of one window and drag-and-drop it to another.

Sergej 20. December 2007, 21:29

upgrated :smile:

Easy to update and faster than Firefox (a friend asked me why I use Opera, yesterday)

mimi_s_mum 20. December 2007, 22:27

bug-264187:
The text duplication bug when using Microsoft Japanese IME on Blogger compose/edit field, has returned with vengeance. Strangely Gmail compose, the other site which I filed this original bug report for, seems unaffected.

When I filed bug-264187, I thought the same bug affected both Gmail compose and Blogger compose/edit, but I was obviously wrong. Should I file another bug report about Blogger issue only?

Edit***

My bad. The bug already existed in ver 9.24. Shows how often I update my blog. I did not have this problem when I last posted in September with 9.23. So it came back with 9.24.

Still a question to the dev people. Should I file a new bug report for this issue regarding Blogger only?

@Haavard: wanna tell us something? A Christmas present may be?:smile:

Serpher 20. December 2007, 23:01

That news is a little delayed ;P Many people installed that version few days ago.

zix 20. December 2007, 23:18

installed 9.25, switching back/forward to last 9.5 weekly..
merry x-mas

mgillespie 20. December 2007, 23:18

Both 9.25 and latest 9.50 weekly fail the Acid2 test.

Not good, considering Firefox and IE are suddenly making such a noise about Acid2 this week...

IE, yes, but as for Firefox, you're one year late.
Besides, the test is currently broken. Opera and others still pass it.

wallstreet23788 21. December 2007, 10:03

i installed this over 9.5 9694 beta.

this 9.25 opera will not run.

it will use constant 90-95% of cpu usage but not start. memory use is always 13.748 K (13 mb).

RedBaron 21. December 2007, 10:58

wallstreet23788: I know this, only clean install get you back into 9.2 series.

Well, you should never install final releases on top of a beta, let alone a snapshot release (which is what you've done). And I don't think it will be possible at all to downgrade from 9.50 final (when it is released) to a previous release for a couple of reasons, one being the new mail backend.

TuPLaD 22. December 2007, 12:45

Micky & haavard: I install every beta/alpha that comes out on here.. I'm on linux by the way, so I do the usual: dpkg -i <filename>.deb

D-n 22. December 2007, 22:26

YAYY!!!

Almost reported a bug from 9656, but you great, wonderful people SQUASHED it! Seems many "people" pages from IMDB were crashing 9656, but these all now work:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0460209/ Lynn Klugman
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0154665/ Paddy Chayefsky
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000034/ William Holden

(any cinema buff can tell what I've been watching :wink: )

Filip007 23. December 2007, 07:58

Some instability i found on horizontal slider when using 9.25 on this forum...!!!

Acid II is broken in 9.25 but not in 9716. Why?
ACID II

Edit: The problem has been caused by Fit to Width again :cry:
Works well now.

haavard 23. December 2007, 13:07

zoquete, Acid2 is discussed above. Try Ctrl+F :wink:

zoquete 23. December 2007, 19:07

haavard, it was your information and it was a wrong one. That's all. I did not read everything....

zoquete 23. December 2007, 20:09

I hope as well, that if Acid-II-test would be updated or manipulated in any way, there would be some information about it about and about the reason for this step.

haavard,
1) Next time check better your information sources
2) For searching in a page I use slash|dot-shortcuts
3) I am able to read Operas keyboard-shotcuts page even when my English is not without bugs.

haavard 23. December 2007, 20:29

The Acid2 test was actually broken, but it was fixed again very recently. Again, a search might help, so as to avoid duplicating discussions.
