How do I get Opera to work with Gmail?


Hi,
I am using Mandriva 2007.1; I find that I am unable to log into gmail when I am using Opera 9.24. I can login using both firefox and seamonkey. In opera I enter my username and password, and then I am dumped back on the same logon screen.
Even the 9.50 beta is not working with gmail.
Please suggest something. Googling did not help.

I have Opera 9.27 on Debian Etch - No problem logging on to gmail.

Can you log on to other SSL sites?

Also I note that the URL that the logon page redirects me to is different when I use Opera.

It is: "http://mail.google.com/mail/?disablechatbrowsercheck=1&ui=1"

note disablebrowsercheck - my Opera identifies itself as Opera/9.24 (X11; Linux i686; U; en)
what is yours? (see Help:About)

Problem Solved......

Hi,
I just removed Opera and installed it again; it did not work. I removed it and installed it again. This time I was able to log into gmail. I upgraded to the newer 9.25 version yesterday, and it also works fine.
Just beats me.
