Title: Opera For Your C1000 Or 3100
Post by: Cresho on October 16, 2005, 10:14:05 pm

1st install

opera_sl-5x00-7.30.9965_arm.ipk

2nd install

opera-cseries-fix_7.30_arm.ipk

third.

just because you installed these, it does not mean that you can bookmark since permissions are changed. in order for you to bookmark or save settings in opera, you need to change permissions for a certain directory.

change permission in /home/zaurus by
in the terminal
excuse my messy code but i hope some one can correct me

Code: [Select]

# su
# chown -R zaurus:qpe /home/zaurus/.opera
# chmod 700 /home/zaurus/.opera



works fine on my c1000.

do my thing first and reboot it if you wish. then try opera and see if it works.

you can find the files by googling it.






i recommend qkonsole for a terminal.

after install....hold icon down to open up new menu and the you can uncheck magnify.

after that, you can issue those commands. I forgot to mention to change the font size since by default, its tiny.

Cresho,

Out of curiosity, what is the difference between Opera 7.30 and 7.55? Is there a reason you didn't install the 7.55 version of the browser?

When I first got my Zaurus, I installed 7.55, but then I had to wipe it and start over, and for some reason I had trouble reinstalling it, so I went with 7.3. Interestingly, I found that there was at least one site that would cause 7.55 to crash, but that 7.3 had no problem with, so I never tried to reinstall 7.55. Is there any difference in features? I didn't notice any.

if you tried to upload a file here with the opera, you cant, but you can with netfront.  I frankly use both browsers since one can do better than the other.

It may be off topic, but how to install openssh? I tried, and it failed?

I have noticed that 7.30 on the C1k doesn't allow use of the standard Opera "g" shortcut to open up a URL address window.

I had problem with Opera 7.55 on my 5500. I went back to version 6. Now on c1000 I am using netfront (dont have much time to mess with Z now) but I will try Opera soon.
