Posted: Thu Oct 31, 2002 8:00 am Post subject: Opera 6.1 final! |
|
|
while there is not yet an official announcement on the opera-site,
files been appearing here:
ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/linux/610/final/en/
so is guess this will be the final release.
btw; is it better to go with the dynamic version or should i go with static?
Can i make a working easily by editing the old ones for opera or are there any new dependencies etc? |

Yep. Looks really nice with anti-aliased fonts, too.
Its a pity that it didn't end up using qt 3.1 tho. I wanted to see opera with keramic buttons or the new liquid widgets. Ah well.. perhaps next release _________________ -gj |

|

hi,
changed my yesterday's ebuild for the final version.
Uses now wrapper-script, which avoids some error-messages.
http://www.darav.de/gentoo/opera-6.1.tar.gz
This is for gcc32-system (older may work) and sharet QT3.
Have fun & enjoy |

thx alot for the ebuild, it seems to work!
but is this correct:
Code: |
>>> Install opera-6.1 into /var/tmp/portage/opera-6.1/image/ category net-www
Running prefix installation...
System wide configuration files:
/var/tmp/portage/opera-6.1/image//etc//opera6rc
/var/tmp/portage/opera-6.1/image//etc//opera6rc.fixed
cannot be prefixed
Do you want to install them [y,n | yes,no]?
cp: cannot create regular file `/var/tmp/portage/opera-6.1/image//etc/opera6rc': No such file or directory
cp: cannot create regular file `/var/tmp/portage/opera-6.1/image//etc/opera6rc.fixed': No such file or directory
|
?
also opera throws alot of:
Code: |
//opt/opera/share/plugins/operamotifwrapper: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
|
(which indeed doesnt exists) to the console, any idea? |

Hi,
first problem could be ignored. but I changed it.
The second one is also fixed:
openmotif is a dependency.
So download it again (same address as above),
in give it another try.

hmm still doesnt work.. i even tried re-emerging openmotif but libXm.so.2 still doesnt exists
Could it be that libXm.so.2 is al link to one of these:
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.3
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.3.0.1
could it be that this problem prevents me from watching a flashmovie in the new opera? |

Ravage,
Nice work on the ebuild. Had to make two changes in order to get Java applets to work:
Add these lines to /opt/opera/share/bin/opera:
export OPERA_JAVADIR=/opt/java/j2sdk/jre/lib/i386/
export LD_PRELOAD=${OPERA_JAVADIR}/libawt.so
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${OPERA_JAVADIR}:${OPERA_JAVADIR}/client/
export OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED="1"
Change line 9 in /opt/opera/share/java/opera.policy to read:
grant codebase "file:///opt/opera/share/java//opera.jar" {
In addition, Opera complained that it couldn't find /usr/share/opera/chartables.bin. So I had to make the /usr/share/opera directory and copy /opt/opera/share/chartables.bin to it.
The icons look much better than the version I installed manually.

thx ejwahl: fixed these things.
you have to umerge opera, delete complet /opt/opera.
then emerge opera. (don't forget to unmask before.)
use the above link for ebuild (like before) !
Now, for me Java and Flash works fine. |

after struggling with browsers and java for the better half of this week, your ebuild is a godsend
thanks man, worked perfectly, although i still needed to add the export settings in the /opt/opera/share/bin/opera file... but hey, i can finally check my web mail at this service that uses java for it's encryption system... _________________ Came for the hype, stayed for Portage. |

the export settings are in there,
but they are only activated after starting opera once and set the java-path in "Preferences->Multimedia".
Then exit and restart - should be fine ... hope so. |

looks pretty nice here too. except it doesnt' install to /opt/opera but i fixed that with a softlink.
and i probably will have to change the RGB settings for X because my AA fonts on my laptop look somewhat strange... _________________ My next computer is also a Gentoo computer |

Ravage...perfect. No tweaking required. Just had to install the Flash plugins.
iancurtis: Do you have flashplayer.xpt and libflashplayer.so installed in /opt/opera/share/plugins (assuming you're using the new Flash 6 beta)? Also, have you gone into Preferences and made sure the plugin is recognized? If it is, then restart the browser and try again...Try http://m-three.com to see if Flash works...Perhaps you're using Flash 5 on sites that require version 6?
