Opera 6 with OZ 3.3.6pre1
« on: January 26, 2004, 02:02:59 pm »
I have successfully installed Opera 6 onto OZ using the oz-compat libs.  Opera 6 loads and works so far, however, one thing is bugging me.  The icons at the top of Opera do not display, has anyone else experienced this issue and is there any work-around available?

After installing the oz-compat libs I had to edit the opera.desktop file and put runcompat in the exec line. Heres what my opera.desktop file looks like:

[Desktop Entry]
Comment=The Opera 6.0 Web Browser
Exec=runcompat opera
Icon=opera.png
MimeType=text/html;application/x-shockwave-flash;application/pdf;application/x-x509-user-cert;application/x-x509-ca-cert;application/pkcs7-signature;application/pkcs7-mime;application/x-pem-file;application/x-pkcs12

Icon fix (if I remember correctly, if not try a search):

ln -s /opt/QtPalmtop/opera /usr/share/opera

Posting this from Opera 7 on oz336, just wonderful.

Anyone having issues with the opie-sh script of the compat libs package?
I was, the apps didn\'t show up if I wanted to choose from the list. I can post here what I changed. Is the package mantainer around here?


Have a wonderful day! :-D


There was something wrong while parsing the packages names, and bulding the list.

Compare your ask_list() (in /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/makecompat) to this:
Code: [Select]
ask_list() {                                                                    

        # Figure out which app groups are                                      

        GROUP=`ls $OPIE_DIR/apps                                              

                | grep -v Setting                                              

                | sed -e"s/1Pim/Pim/g"                                        

                | $OPIE_SH -g -i -M "Select which group" -l -F                

                | sed -e"s/Pim/1Pim/g"`                                        

                                                                                

        for i in $OPIE_DIR/apps/$GROUP/*.desktop; do                          

                # Extract the name and what is run                              

                EXEC=`grep "Exec=" $i | sed -e"s/.*=//g"`                      

                NAME=`grep "Name=" $i | sed -e"s/.*=//g"`                      

                                                                

                # Where is the file actually located?          

                # This doesnt handle spaces.                    

                FOUND="false"                                  

                for j in `echo $PATH | sed -e"s/:/ /g"`; do    

                        if [ -x $j/$EXEC ]; then                

                                EXEC="$j/$EXEC"        

                                FOUND="true"                                                                  

                                break                                                                        

                        fi                                                                                    

                done                                                                                          

                                                                                                              

                # Did we find the object?

Thanks lardman!  Your fix worked for me as well.  Seems so simple... what does that actually do?

Opera looks in a certain location for its files. ln -s makes what\'s called a symbolic link between the actual location and the one it wants to look in.

I got Opera 7 installed - however did not get an icon in the opie \"task bar\" when I edited opera.desktop to Exec=runcompat opera

So I created an runopera.sh file which runs \"runcompat opera\". It comes up and the icon comes up as well (as shown in the 1st attachment). However when I switch to another running application and try to switch back to opera I get \"runopera not responding\". Any idea how to solve this issue?

I\'m using OZ3.36pre1 on SL-C860.
