Opera 11.01

January 27, 2011 · by Aleksander Aas

Opera 11.01

Opera engineers never stop working on the next generation of Opera features. While they work hard on new features and updates, it's time to address some stability and security issues with the release of Opera 11.01.

In addition to the security and stability updates, Opera 11.01 also reverts changes done to mouse gestures. This change should make old mouse gesture users feel more at home with the new Visual Mouse Gestures.

    Going great. Seems snappier than 11.00
    Thank you very much for your hard work, Team! :yes:

    Will this version 11.01 be available 4 Android unlike Opera 11?:confused: :confused: :confused:

    Sees a lot more stable and smoother than 11.0.
    However, the Acid3 Test result is 97/100 instead of a perfect score.

    That's caused by an Extension. Do you have Image Preview Popup installed?

    I can answer this for you:
    No.

    This is a desktop release.

    On Android try out Opera Mobile 10.1 beta.
  • Sanchit KarveThursday, January 27, 2011 9:03:27 AM

    @Nico Yes, but uninstalling it didn't help. However, disabling some others did the trick.
    Thanks. :smile:
    I guess as far as web standards are concerned, I should trust the Opera Team blindly.

    3rd time I have used the auto update

    I got a 99, when I check the a to see the errors I see

    Failed 1 tests.
    Test 26 passed, but took 130ms (less than 30fps)
    Test 33 failed: expected '1' but got '3' - failure 2
    Test 69 passed, but took 8 attempts (less than perfect).
    Test 71 passed, but took 80ms (less than 30fps)
    Total elapsed time: 1.65s




    I just wonder when the 64 bit version will come out for Mac and Windows in the future

    Thanks for the revert of the mouse gestures!

  • ErikThursday, January 27, 2011 6:10:30 PM

    I always wondered what files/which dont, the updates modify... backing up the mail folder, feeds and bookmarks among other files can be very time consuming.

    Can anyone share some updating experiences and if theres a problem tell (or maybe a link to where tech issues about the updates are discussed)?

    "...Opera 11.01 also reverts changes done to mouse gestures. This change should make old mouse gesture users feel more at home with the new Visual Mouse Gestures."

    Are visual mouse gestures mandatory and/or what do you mean by 'revert' ?

    thanks

    UPDATE:

    altough its recommended to backup often, update process went without a problem, gmail looking good here, visual gestures didn't re-enabled themselves, and thankfully the old feeling of the gestures is here again, custom menus(menu.ini) were thrown out the windows as usual so i only had to restore those, custom toolbar still in place. :yes:

    v 11.01 b 1190 Win32, win 7 x64

    In the past the Opera upgrades went well, a box appeared to "upgrade now?"
    This upgrade to 11.01 did not provide this option. I don't know if the problem is with Windows XP or the new Opera upgrade software but this went badly, froze my laptop for 1/2 this am and again when I turned it on again this pm. I don't think anything was lost, after forcing Opera closed and restarting Opera after the upgrade completed this afternoon the toolbar and bookmarks re-appeared.
    I hope nothing was lost and I hope this doesn't happen again. All previous upgrades worked very well.
  • Cutting SpoonThursday, January 27, 2011 11:02:44 PM

    Maybe there should a be "bean jar" Paypal donation box, to subsidize the tasty snacks and coffee that keep them working.
  • Sn3ipenFriday, January 28, 2011 6:45:39 AM

    Thanks, but switching tabs with 'right click + scroll' still doesn't work properly when compositing is turned on, Ubuntu 10.10.

    This may seem like a small annoyance, but it almost drive me insane sometimes.

    I have a question about Opera Link.
    I have been using Opera for about 4 years and it runs great.
    I have been using my netbook, ASUS Eee PC 900 for 4 years and runs OK.
    I have all my passwords on the Magic Wand tool.
    My computer has been getting a little slow. And I fear it's death.
    When my computer finally ... dies, and I get a new one (and put Opera on it, of course!) and log connect it to Opera Link, will my passwords be there.

    **Thanks in advance**
  • Cutting SpoonFriday, January 28, 2011 8:05:57 PM

    You need to copy from inside your user folder, called wand.dat

    Nope they wont be there :sad:
    But you can copy and paste the wand.dat from your program files.
