  • Sardorbek11. May 2010, 11:05

    what about Fonts? in GNU/Linux
  • Luca11. May 2010, 11:08

    Thank you. Listed fixes are ok. :smile:

    I have a problem with WAND in Facebook home page. WAND remind my username and password, but it don't insert the username, and the login fail.
  • mrd11. May 2010, 11:09

    A coincidence maybe but on my w7x64 laptop (T6400/4GB) I upgraded my previous build and started it with what... 9 tabs open and it was very unresponsive while loading them for about 10-15 seconds.

    No crash, but just seemed peculiar in my experience anyway.

    ...

    edit to add: Second close/start up it didn't go unresponsive so I've no idea.

    Thats a bug in Facebook not Opera. Focus the e-mail field before clicking the wand button

    Thx guys! Testing.
  • Crabman11. May 2010, 11:27

    Well, the fixed Youtube-Bug (still) happens on other Sites as well. I.e. http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-flotilla/17-2444/. Not ervery time but very often. And I have to reload sites like http://www.gamersyde.com/news_9300_en.html multiple times before all the imbedded videos are loaded correctly.
  • Patkos Csaba11. May 2010, 11:33

    Testing ... thanks for the quick flash fix.
  • Michał11. May 2010, 11:34

    Yeah, flash videos works again. :-)

    But some issues remains:
    - text inputs still lose focus after use of context menu
    - thumbnails generation for speed dial still broken (rendered without loading of CSS)
    - webserach context menu options doesn't work for text selections;
    - margins in in text inputs still missing and gradients for Oxygen style too


    KDE 4.4.3, Mandriva 2010.1, i386
  • ediowinlin11. May 2010, 11:40

    Flash works great. Font issues are still here.
  • netwolf11. May 2010, 11:47

    YT working properly again on XP.

    Are there any other changes for Windows systems, or only the 2 mentioned in the changelog?
  • arghwashier11. May 2010, 11:49

    What is IME?
  • Claus Berghammer11. May 2010, 11:54

    Aaaahhhhhhh Thank you Devs.... Finally I can chat with Opera on Facebook again. Had to use 10.10 the last days, because 10.5x was completely unusable since the last Facebook-security-fix. I wasnt a charm before anyway ;-) But now it works perfect again, like in 10.10. Thank you again...

    Thank you for Youtube bug fix :wink:
  • eini11. May 2010, 12:38

    Nice :up:,
    but please fix the previously posted "scrolling with overlaying windows/hint" bug for windows (XP-SP2 in my case). It's driving me crazy - i don't like unreadable sites! :cry:

    I think I've already read about a bugreport concerning redraw issues with overlaying windows - but I can't find it right now.
    So tell me whether I should file a new one!

    Edit:
    Made a Bugreport:
    DSK-298637
  • Volshebnyi11. May 2010, 12:50

    Linux Mint 9 Helena

    First launch after upgrading: opened one instance of Opera with my previous session, one with opera start page and three with speed dial (five total).

    Saving page as HTML with images: extension of saved file is MHT, not HTM.

    Broken Speed Dial CSS on SSK Dynamic skin (was normal on 10.53 beta)

    Crash on Dragonfly error. (It appeared for a second, something like "Error parsing XML")
  • digitalinksmudge11. May 2010, 12:55

    Start Bar has missing buttons on all tabs except the first one created (generally, but not consistently).

    Disabling Start Bar in Appearances/Toolbar by unchecking box does not work as the Start Bar does not go away, and check box is auto populated once I go back to the Appearances/Toolbar settings.

    Win7

    EDIT (2): Restarting Opera seems to have helped in that all tabs now show Start Bar properly so far. Also, Im unsure if individual tabs can utilize Start Bar, while others do not...? Any ideas?

    Cheers!
  • SteveKong11. May 2010, 13:03

    Still not each italic styled text actually rendered italic. (e.g. on http://www.schwarzes-leipzig.info)
    Can anyone confirm?

    Tuenti chat and it works perfectly :D:D thanks!!
  • Necroman11. May 2010, 13:14

    Found bug in PDF handling in multi-display setting! Open a tab with some PDF document, move that tab to the secondary monitor - now you see Maximized Opera with some page on the primary monitor and maximized Opera with the PDF document on the secondary monitor. Now click to the primary monitor to Opera and use arrow keys on the opened page, or Enter, or other navigation buttons - the second Opera instance with PDF also gets this input and the page is scrolled too. :eyes:
    Try it and tell me, if it works same way on your machine.
  • paxl1311. May 2010, 13:17

    DSK-298100 (YouTube plays audio, but the video player does not show)

    It's not fixed for me.

    1. I enter any channel,
    2. I click one vid then I click second - and that 2nd vid does not show up.

    Same problem here. Videos selected from the list on the right in a youtube channel page (e.g http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=Helloween4545 ), need scroll up and down to show image. Win7 64bit.
    I guess that what they fixed was that in the previous build this problem was also for all youtube videos (not only those inside a channel page). Those play as they should now.

    No, but it takes a few seconds before the content is displayed. In IE8 it's instantaneous.

  • Vernon Rowe11. May 2010, 13:43

    Last snapshot (6333) Java worked for me and flash got broken .. now with 6335 flash is working and Java is not. Why have these not worked together yet?

    Is it possible to adjust the distance between the windows in the mosaic mode? I'd like to make it twice smaller.
  • poorrichard0111. May 2010, 14:13

    I installed the Linux snapshot on my Acer Aspire One netbook running Jolicloud (a customized Linux distro built on Ubuntu). I can now watch Youtube videos, however, I have this issue where, if I leave a tab open and switch to another tab, the Youtube player screen stays visible on the other tab for two or three seconds and then finally goes away. This happens every time if I leave Youtube open on a tab.
  • Andrew Frazier11. May 2010, 14:17

    @Vladimyr Ivanov
    I reported that as bug DSK-298328 when the last build was released.
  • NEOAethyr11. May 2010, 14:18

    Still has NSL issues.
    And the buidl that doesn't, 3383, has probs with dropping conenctions quite offen.
    Both with a proxy and without.

    Say it drops the proxy connection, it never works again until your restart opera.
    You can however switch the proxy off and it'll work again without a re-start (proxy won't).
    But when that part of opera stops working, then you have to restart it.

    Happens after a timeout, a short one, just a few secs roll by and the whole connection is dead.
    Then you switch off the proxy, use opera for a few more mins and the same usually happens again killing the rest of opera's possible connections.

    There's also problems with the queue.
    Opera will sometimes store conenctions in queue even when there is supposed to be no queue.
    Ie, you start opera, you goto load up google as an example, and it'll say waiting on queued..., etc.
    Even though there's not supposed to be anything before it.

    There are several spots where the text is corrupted on scrolling, in both the browser window and the bookmarks window.
    Plus a million other little bugs.

    Hulu is no longer working 100% anymore...

    I still have to use v10.10 from time to time for diff things.
    Thanks for the new build, it only took me a few secs though to find the nsl problem.
