Hi

Thanks for your replies.

dougeeebear - don't really want to start all over again if I can help it.

tumnus - I tried as you suggested but I still have the same problem, using the icon gives me an hourglass for a couple of seconds but no opera, type opera into konsole and I get opera - very wierd !?!?!

Cheers

Colin

Update:  After looking around on the forums I discovered the existance of the opera.desktop file, I edited this to allow me to run opera with root permissions and my icon now works agian.

I can run opera from konsole under the user zaurus but I need root permissions to run it from the icon !?!?!? again I say, very wierd.

Hi

I'm new to the Z scene, I have a Zaurus SL-5500 with the 3.13 Sharp ROM and I've run into a strange problem with Opera.

After installing and removing a few ipkg's I've found that my icon for Opera no longer launches the program, the icon changes and the hour glass appears for a while but nothing happens.  If I run Opera from the console it works fine.

I've tried upgrading to Opera 7.30 but I still have the same problem.

I've tried googling around for an answer without success so I thought I'd ask here if anybody can shed some light on my problem.

Cheers

Colin
