Redhat Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 I assume your running KDE? Is it not under the "start" menu (click the K) then under internet / More applications? If not, Copy the file in /usr/lib and paste it into : /home/username/Desktop :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey Posted October 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Thanks for the reply. Yes ussing KDE. I don't have ' Internet' under start , Mozilla comes under Networking/WWW but Opera not there. Tried copying Opera to /home/username/desktop/ which does put the icon on the desktop but clicking on it does nothing.Under softerware manager it appears under network station.Ken.

casey Posted October 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 I have managed to cure the problem by removing Opera and installing the static version instead of the shared. This works fine.Ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
