I have several answers for you, some more potentially useful than others...
-What do you expect, playing around with alpha software? (Ubuntu 8.04 alpha 4)
-What do you expect, playing around with beta software? (Opera 9.50 beta)

Locking assertion failure.

You could conclude that there was a problem with some sort of lock file arrangement. I'd have expected this to be under "opera" somewhere or another (try, say, "locate opera | grep -i lock" for a potential bit of cluefulness, particularly if that lock file is older than your Opera installation...).
But, you also have:
Code:
opera: xcb_xlib.c:82: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed.
Which suggests that there is a locking problem with xlib.lock. Now it would surprise me a bit if some general 'X' locking file would be the problem (rather than one of opera's own) but you might want to have a look at the creation date on that and see if that is your problem.
You'd probably want to have a look at the contents (probably not very informative, but you can't tell 'till you've looked) before
renaming the lock file. If it all goes pear-shaped, you can always rename the lock file back, but normally in the abscence of a lock file they get recreated fine. My only doubt is that you might break X, but you seem to like living on the edge, anyway...
