I downloaded Opera for use with Linux 6.2
However I cannot load it onto the system. Has anybody had any luck with Opera??? Thankd |
I'm sure that if you describe the installation process and where it went wrong thwn we may be able to help. Did you download a .tar or was it a shell installer?

Opera
I downloaded all versions off the opera web site. I am running 6.2.
When I go through file manager and find the file on the mounted device and work my way down to the install option. I find the install.sh file ( it appears to be the only one which resembles an executable) I double click on it and it advises me that there is nothing to be done. I guess the first question is what version should I be using? A dynamic or static version? and the option of B7 PPC or X86? Again any help appreciated |
opera
The static version does not require qt 2.2 to be installed.
this one should work if you are not sure. if you are using Redhat/Mandrake get the rpm it's easier I used the tar ball and start it from the terminal.(i was only playing with it too see it work and did not copy the ./opera to the /user/bin.) |
have the file - what is the command you are using to run the program?
I still cannot get it to run. I would have thought running the install.sh file would have produced better results than a message of nothing to be done. Thanks |
Did you run the file in a terminal window? If not try it that way.

from a terminal type "./opera"
you could create a desktopp app for it. or move the executable to /user/local/bin if you dont want to include the path to it or cd to it in a terminal |
