Stability work

This build contains a few stability fixes, and initial IME support on *nix (Linux/FreeBSD).

Linux is close to being on par with the other platforms, and right now we are very interested in crash reports on all platforms. Please use the crash reporting dialog actively to make sure we catch as many crashes as possible, and remember to add any relevant details about what you were doing at the time of the crash. We would also be interested in reports about any freezes/hangs.

WARNING: This is a development snapshot of Opera. It is released for testing purposes, and there may be serious bugs and unfinished features.

When you try to remove all search engines and click on Delete button in preferences window Opera hangs up/freezes. Today evening I'll try to get report with Inspector IIXII.

dupel Wednesday, June 23, 2010 1:48:49 PM

I was always interested, why Opera installation offers me russian language in first step of the installation?

I mean I live in UK, have english windows 7 (and similar was on vista) and russian is only a secondary language installed in my system.

So, why the idiotic behavior?

Krzysztof Hankiewiczlordmorgul Wednesday, June 23, 2010 1:49:35 PM

Wow, my post got deleted. I'll ask again, then.
Will there be any KDE integration, or just this... Crappy thing it is now?
For reference (the snapshots are from the previous build, but it looks equally bad with this one):

I hope it gets fixed by the time you release a stable version for Linux.

Please, fix this issue, it has been annoying me and many others since 10.5x!

Guys, can anyone tell me WHY Opera opens ALL links that I click on from any external application in Private Tabs? Like, for instance, someone sends me a link via ICQ or Skype, I click on it, it opens in Opera, BUT in a Private Tab. Meaning that all the links I open from external applications are not saved in Opera's history :/

The newest build has still problems in rendering the following SVG map http://www.mappetizer.de/de/beispiele/germany/index.html. It is a little bit faster but yet slower then Opera 10.5

Sytem: Windows7 32Bit

uismedia Wednesday, June 23, 2010 2:32:28 PM

When zooming in on
http://www.heideflaechenverein.de/freizeit/heidepfad/mappetizer/index.html
then the street lines and the circles are pixeling. But this are SVG vectors lying on an arial image. If using other browsers there is no pixeling.

Sytem: Windows7 32Bit

Opera on debian testing + gnome, if Opera is minimized, left click on tray icon, Opera is not hidden is minimized, but if it maximizes shows only the window frame with a black background, if you left click maximized with Opera, Opera shows

Finally! IME support in linux. I cannot type in Korean on the address bar, but in other places it seems IME works (not smooth though) And font still look weird for Korean characters.

Thanks!

Confirmed. It looks that Opera first renders svg, and after that resize image. If there are not pixelating in other browsers, then it should also work in Opera so probably

You shouldn't need to use it since the built in crash logger is based on the same code but there is an Inspector for Linux: http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/825/

Crashed within 10 seconds after installing when I was opening a page. The next minute I had about ten crashes, so I've given up on using this built. This because I can't see a pattern in the crashes, it just happens on random pages.

Guess I'll wait for a more stable built.

wannadance Wednesday, June 23, 2010 3:30:05 PM

Still waiting for the flash player fix ( unclickable buttons in flash player on some sites ) . Some cam chats don't work with Opera because of it.

REGRESSION: JAVA (not Javascript!) content is not shown with this build. I do not have an example because its internal. This was no problem with the last one or two builds.
