*NIX family focus
I hope all of you aren’t tired of testing just yet. Because mere hours after releasing the previous one, here is yet another Opera snapshot (YAOS) for testing!
For Mac, we have fixed a significant SVG drawing/animation regression from Peregrine, and optimized the start-up sequence to make it faster. Two crashers introduced with 10.60 Alpha 1 have also been fixed.
For FreeBSD and Linux, we have numerous font fixes, improvements to X11 mode, and the KDE file selector freeze is fixed.
Known issues

In 6346 build I didn't see this.

1. Search engine suggestions
2. Autocomplete
what have Opera guys against those features? every other major browser has them.
Opera gains competitive advantage in some very complex things, and in things so simple as these two they loose it. So strange ...

Still the same issue with www.liveside.net and other Microsoft-Related sites, that use video players...
If they are written with Silverlight, there might be some issue using Silverlight.

About that *nix focus, well after months of development now you've decided to focus on long overdue *nix OK... , that is belated a bit one might say....
And this short quotation from yesterday for comic relief:
"For Unix users, this obviously means that there will be no 10.5x version. However, we are aiming for synchronizing the 10.60 release across all platforms."
Aiming... hehehe. Good one. You got me, no kidding.

eliotcougar3. June 2010, 16:06
Yay!!! Quoting works again...
I just wonder what does "CORE-30317 (Excessive memory consumption (>1.5 GB))" fix mean... Does that mean Opera now doesn't try to keep very long .flv files entirely in memory cache while playing them?..

The white color on the font on mouse over, and the square corners are wrong. Look at Konqueror for how it should look.

This happens if you set Wrapping mode for tab bar - wrap to multiple lines, and if the Opera window is not maximized...
