    Unfortunately this Linux support includes "deb" package only. Sure I could try to convert it, but I don't think it should work that way.

      It is not only deb, it is deb for Ubuntu Unity with default motive. Other motive, other desktop environment or other distribution and Opera is not functional or looks weird...

          actually no... i use it on opensuse and kde and it works fine and looks like everything else.


          concerning installation on other platforms, here is an article of an opera-guy with detailed descriptions: https://gist.github.com/ruario/99522c94838d0680633c

            actually no... i run opera dev under opensuse and kde and it fits the design perfectly.

            here are some tipps by an opera guy regarding non deb distros: https://gist.github.com/ruario/99522c94838d0680633c

              Opera is proprietary

              They can take their proprietary software and shove it up where the sun don't shine!

              It is basically a proprietary modification of Chromium. Might as well use Chromium instead.

                Are you sure? The German wiki says it's open source since v16 (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera).

                  Or Firefox which uses Chromium also, And IMO is better than chrome now if you use Classic theme restorer.

                    I'm trying to understand what message you're trying to convey? If you're trying to say that Firefox uses the blink engine, you're wrong! If you're trying to say that it uses an UI that is similar to Chrome then you're more or less right. Please proofread for ambiguity.
