Is there an ubuntu repository where I can get the latest weeklies? deb.opera.com doesn't seem to have the latest weeklies sad

Paul SkinnerPaulSkinner Friday, July 7, 2006 4:21:08 PM

Why did the size of the Classic build go up, but the MSI build go down?

Still a horizontal scroll-bar on www.adobe.com

Tommy A. Olsentoman Friday, July 7, 2006 4:21:26 PM

@Tommy2k4: The weeklies are not in any repository. Just come here, or subscribe to the feed to get the latest updates.

'UNIX notes

no, correct command is 'rpm -Uhv --nodeps opera-package.rpm' at least on SUSE 10.1 x64 (the depency missing is linux-gate.so.1 )

Sykora Skywavesykora Friday, July 7, 2006 4:22:51 PM

Greate stuff with the Ubuntu release. Opera is clawing it's way up, slowly, but surely.

AlexandrZybex Friday, July 7, 2006 4:22:56 PM

Hey. When i delete some mail, container empty folders DOESNT deleted :@

Joey WaghWajo357 Friday, July 7, 2006 4:27:07 PM

tformers.com still renders wrong.
NTLM on my company intralink still does not work. It is a https. A white page just appears with a security icon of 1.

pivo Friday, July 7, 2006 4:30:06 PM

First, opera is a greate product. Thanks.

Would it be possible to make the changelog more detailed?

> Several SVG fixes

What fixes?

Twilo Friday, July 7, 2006 4:30:30 PM

why is the font size on some websides so small?

System: Kubuntu 6.06
Opera: opera_9.01-20060706.6-shared-qt_en_i386.deb

Gmail spell check does not give suggestions...

Rafald.i.z. Friday, July 7, 2006 4:36:34 PM

Wow, none of 1 hundred regressions that I've reported is fixed. Thanks irked

Sorry but I may be losing patience sad

EDIT: Well, uclosable flash ads are fixed. THANKS for that smile

Joey WaghWajo357 Friday, July 7, 2006 4:38:10 PM

google spreadsheet is looking much better IDing as IE smile

CaseySirCasey Friday, July 7, 2006 4:42:57 PM

Ugh. The drop down search bar still doesn't drop down when you hit the down arrow on the keyboard. I use it too much to miss that... Still using build 8432 until that's fixed.

Does anyone else have that reported as a bug? Should I?

Bill PBill_P Friday, July 7, 2006 4:44:40 PM

Pandora widget issue (old) but still a problem - though the widget works. Every time I reload Opera the widget exists but doesn't function nor is visible even though it shows in the taskbar. The widget must be deleted, cache emptied and then the widget re-dl'ed for it to work.

And to add insult to injury if in the same session I close the widget it will not work if reopened.

SUSE 10.1 x64

RoyStarGazer Friday, July 7, 2006 4:48:49 PM

- NTLM should now work through HTTP proxies

- Typed history is now removed when deleting history from prefs

Cool Beans! Also, this build seems noticeably faster.

Alexis DeveriaFyrd Friday, July 7, 2006 4:49:13 PM

Thanks for the Mac attention. smile
Regression bugs, however, remain:

1. Bug #214395 (would love to have more than one widget in background)
2. Bug #219267 Arrow keys won't select search engine any more.

FataL Friday, July 7, 2006 4:49:47 PM

How about BAK files? I don't see any changes...
BAK files still not generate.

AndrewAndrewNi Friday, July 7, 2006 4:50:54 PM

Still has the annoying cache problem sad

FataL Friday, July 7, 2006 4:55:05 PM

Newegg.com categories links still jumping when hover.

robert wilsonhotaru Friday, July 7, 2006 4:56:23 PM

no linux static build?

FedericoRyomaNagare Friday, July 7, 2006 5:00:31 PM

Wow now http://admin3.imaginationatwork.com/LaunchPage suddenly works great opera team i love thee

Tim AltmanJunyor Friday, July 7, 2006 5:19:14 PM

@Zybex: Would you please provide more details about the problem you're having?

Ranjan Groverrgrover Friday, July 7, 2006 5:20:01 PM

What's the difference between

opera_9.01-20060706.5-shared-qt_en_i386.deb and
opera_9.01-20060706.6-shared-qt_en_i386.deb?

Oh and spell check works in gmail just fine if you use plain text format.

Alexis DeveriaFyrd Friday, July 7, 2006 5:20:34 PM

@SirCasey

I just noticed your comment, glad to see that's been bothering you too (um, well you know what I mean). Didn't know that was on the Windows build too, interesting. Wasn't sure if it was significant enough to warrant a bug report, so I never did. But if you like, go ahead, just share the number you get out of it. smile

JasmoJazmo Friday, July 7, 2006 5:20:47 PM

While there still are bugs around there's no new bugs (regressions) came up so when time passes we will get better and better product smile

CaseySirCasey Friday, July 7, 2006 5:27:26 PM

@Fyrd:

Brief summary of the problem encountered:
Drop down search bar doesn't drop down when using the down arrow.

What URL triggers this bug, if any?
It's a build issue, doesn't matter where you are.

Describe in 3 steps or more how to reproduce this bug:
1. Go to the search bar (Google, etc)
2. Hit the down arrow on your keyboard
3. Nothing happens.

When following the steps described above:
1. What do you expect to happen?
It should drop down. Like it did back in build 8432.

2. What actually happens?
It doesn't.

bug-219267

parsien Friday, July 7, 2006 5:29:29 PM

Keep up the good work

Alexis DeveriaFyrd Friday, July 7, 2006 5:31:44 PM

@SirCasey

up You da man. Thanks. smile

LucasNaorn Friday, July 7, 2006 5:34:03 PM

Still:
bug 214435
bug 215619
bug 215629

Dierk HaasisEvo2Me Friday, July 7, 2006 5:34:16 PM

although I didn't change anything between builds that worked and the 9-series, my visited links keep bein visited longer than I want. I have set them to get back to not visited after 2 hours.

Either this is a bug - then please fix it, it worked in builds before 9 and into the 9-series (forgot when it got lost) - or the setting was inadvertently changed.

So I can check it: How to set up Opera (in config obviosly) such that links become un-visited after 2 hours?

joffejoffeman Friday, July 7, 2006 5:42:02 PM

rock on.

AlexandrZybex Friday, July 7, 2006 5:47:39 PM

To Junyor: this problem is not new in this weekly. It appears after mailbase format change.

For example you have file /mail/store/account3/2006/03/11/123.mbs

When you delete corresponding letter and have no more files in this folder, it still exist.

More and more empty folders still here...

G-Bojkokrusha Friday, July 7, 2006 5:58:43 PM

Yeap!!!

It's faster. Great.

Tim AltmanJunyor Friday, July 7, 2006 5:59:52 PM

@Zybex: OK. We have a bug report on that issue.

@Evo2Me: See http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=142702

@Naorn: Bug 214435 is not a bug. Here're your steps for reproduction:

Reproduction:
1. Click f4 etc to open panels
2. Click right mouse button on te bookmark Transfers, Mail, Contact etc and choose Customize.
3. Find the line "Panel placement"
4. You see there 4 option: Left, Right, Floating, Off
5. Click on the Cancel button
6. Now: Choose menu: Tools->Appearance->Toolbars and when the Panels Toolbar is open (whe clicked f4 before) click be left mouse button the Transfers,Mail,Contact etc bookmark. Now you can see that we can Place that panel for example on the top, and choose the Style, etc.

Expected results:
The problem is that the good idea would be to see that options in 6. when we click customize by mouse right button.

In step #2, you're looking at the Panels tab. In step #6, you're looking at the Toolbars tab. Switch tabs and you'll see what you want.

We cannot reproduce bug 215629. Try reducing your font size/minimum font size to see if the problem goes away.

AlexandrZybex Friday, July 7, 2006 6:18:38 PM

One more report.
After installing this weekly, all IRC inline styling is ignored. All colors is black and exit/enters messages in purple instead of green.

I fix this issue by replacing current im.css with im.css from opera 9 final and it helps.

Martin RauscherHades32 Friday, July 7, 2006 6:27:36 PM

I don't know if it's my PC or this Build, but Opera hangs every few seconds TOTALY (if you click on it in title bar will the "does not respond" Text appear) for 2-20 Seconds. It happens when I scroll, when I fetch my feeds, or my mail....
This is VERY disturbing...

TreeGo Friday, July 7, 2006 6:52:11 PM

Confirmed.

You can get different Opera Chat styles here, also.

Ice ArdorIceArdor Friday, July 7, 2006 7:05:07 PM

Does anyone else have the same feeling that I do in that they want to download these weeklies as torrents, to making the serving costs of Opera cheaper, make the download faster, and boast to Firefox users that they can download using Bittorrent--since Firefox hasn't stolen that feature from Opera [yet]?
