Opera 7.55 On 3k

Hum ... I tried (as the user zaurus):

$ mkdir /hhd3/.operasave

But an ls -la shows the owner to be root ... I'm confused
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=68033\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
FWIW, hdd3 is vfat formatted, so I think that's why you can't have any other owner than root (I suppose that the disk is monted by user root during the boot, and as such everything is owned by root since vfat doesn't store owner/group informations).

Did you try to create a /home/Zaurus/.opera directory (as user zaurus)? My bookmarks are saved in there in the opera6.adr file... Maybe Opera somehow cannot create it by itself and you have to do this manually (though I don't remember creating this one myself...).

Did you try to run Opera as root from the console? Maybe this would be enough to create the needed directories, then you can exit and relaunch it as user zaurus to see if it does improve things.

Hey Guys,

I Instaled the two packages found on this forum for Opera 7.30. I enabled the fast load option. This does take memory. It loads fast and keeps bookmarks!

Ok, I had to desable the fast load. I was unable to disconnect from my wireless network. I followed loopy's advice and bookmarks are saved now.

Thanks loopy, and everyone else for your help!

Still having problems with stoping the network. I get an error mesage that the network is busy whenever I try to disconnect. I have to eject the cf card inorder to disconnect. Does anyone know what is going on?

How can I resolve this?

Thanks again.

Hmm, all I can say is that I don't have the same problem. Maybe some Linux guru can tell you what log file to open to see what is going on with your network?

Thanks loopy.

I did a hard reset yesterday and restored a back up file. No more problems. Opera is working great now.

Thanks again!

don't forget to chown -R zaurus to your home zaurus direcoty. the .opera directory has root as owner. once i changed it, all was well with bookmarks.
