I'm Sorry I'm Such A Newbie...

Did you do the ln -s /home/opt/QtPalmtop/opera /usr/share/opera trick and link the package with ipkg-link (if you installed to nonroot)?

I installed to sd

I did do ipkg-link add opera,

I did do ln -s /mnt/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera /home/root/.opera
(but the ipkg already must have put the the link there because I got the message  that the file existed... I had no previous opera installed).

I did this from a fresh flash, mount of sd as a ext2 file system, a fresh install of the sharp compat libs and linked it to the sharp libs...  but I did not do a usr/share link, but opera is there already.

Installing a browser should not be this hard!!!

Did you use the ipk from this thread?

If you did the postinst set up the links wrong(I think it was for 3.5.2).

You'll want to remove some things

Code: [Select]

rm /home/root/.opera
rm /home/root/.operasave
rm /usr/share/opera
and then redo them

Code: [Select]

ln -s /mnt/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera /home/root/.opera
ln -s /mnt/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.operasave /home/root/.operasave
ln -s /mnt/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera /usr/share/opera
I hope these things get it going!  (Just think how good it will feel to search the web with Opera on OZ  )

Glad to see it work.

If it crashes a lot modify /home/zaurus/.opera/opera.ini to increase the cache sizes to the max and then copy the file to /root/.opera as CaptainZilog suggested.
