I think the release critera should be clearly defined.
1/ Is it better than the last stable mainstream release (11.64 in the case)?- YES
2/ Are there no major regressions?
-NO (Lack of popup notifications, I believe is the only showstopper)

It's literally a moment's work to change the directory of the mail in Opera and it's also literally a moment's work to move that directory wherever you want on the hard disk (no copying required - just move/re-name).
So it's actually very easy indeed to move the mail somewhere, do whatever (un)installing you need to do and then either change the mail location in Opera or just move the mail to the new default location.
(*) O12 updated the database so I can't actually use mail in O11 right now (unless I edit the settings file) but you get my point.

I like the new icon, it stands out better in the taskbar!
It scrolls much more smoothly than 11:63 on www.theverge.com, but is still extremely lacking: now, it's just about usable. This is with a clean install.

To be honest, I really like Opera, using it for years, but reading that THIS version will be soon an official edition, makes me sick.

OperaLink now does a pretty good job of backing up and restoring everything. If only it handed by RSS subscriptions, I wouldn't have to do anything but change my mail root....

* - 1px border for the content pane in Windows
* - Opera button on linux should have a border
* - Default theme on windows produce, when the windows is maximized, a 3px gap from the top of the screen for the close maximize and minimize buttons.

Also (it was reported a while ago), the white border is still there if you've got Border Padding set to 0 in Windows Advanced appearance settings and start Opera in non-maximized mode:

Another problem with themes is that when you load sites from speed dial, it doesn't bring up the site immediately as it waits for it to load, instead it continues to show the speed dial page until the site starts rendering.
I won't be using themes for these reasons.

Personally, I wouldn't (and won't upgrade my main install for the time being)

Is this problem common? Why would it be choppy? My driver is Intel's driver for Mobile Intel 4 Series Chipset Family 8.15.10.2555.
spectatorxSpectatorx # Wednesday, June 13, 2012 10:41:11 AM
You can try to update driver but i'm not sure this will change any thing.
Mark A.NightMayor # Wednesday, June 13, 2012 10:42:48 AM
1. Go to Opera>>Settings>>Delete Private Data
2. Make sure "Delete Plug-in Data" is checked.
3. Opera will now freeze up completely and you can't exit through normal means. (You have to go to the Task Manager, etc.)
I have tested it on Windows 7 32bit and just now on Windows Vista 32bit where this bug still happens on both systems.
HWA-Off
WebGL-Off
Plugins Enabled-Yes and No (I have tested it with all plugins enabled, then afterwards when all plugins were disabled. The bug still happened each time.)

So, can someone explain how the opera:cpu usage is calculated please?

http://us.playstation.com/ doesn't work properly.
I'd go into specifics, but there are 1000s of problems, and I don't have proper technical terms for them, so the developers should check them out themselves.

I don't have any major problems (with HWA OFF, of course).

I was using version 12 RC3 when I got this screenshot
And sometimes there is a new version available and Opera says "You are already using the latest version"
Hadesfenorbee # Wednesday, June 13, 2012 11:31:20 AM
Thanks for answering, I did the last clean install by 1454, so I did it again, also flash cleaning, and registry cleaned with ccleaner, and tuneup as well. (I also cleared these things earlier, flash cache clean is integrated in Ccleaner)
Now I did not get the error messages 20 times
The skin problem, with default theme only installed is still here also.

By the way it is very strange that the password field for entering the gmail account is so slow absorbing the key strokes I type.

You say even in the final release it will be disabled by default. That is fine, I just find it strange that when it is enabled it may actually cause performance degradation.
Originally posted by wardies:
You are correct. I mis-worded what I wanted to say. I meant that I enabled HWA with option "1" which is not forcing Opera to use HWA but rather letting Opera decide if it wants to enable it depending on the HWA blacklist. I assume that because I saw a negative change in scrolling performance that Opera indeed did choose to "enable" HWA based on the "1" that I set it to.

I see. I believe the logic for Auto is that HWA will be disabled only if there are known severe errors with the graphics hardware or driver versions installed.
The reduction in performance might depend on what site you're visiting -- other sites may even perform faster -- but you're right: currently HWA seems to be slower in general for many, which is probably one of the reasons it defaults to disabled for now.
