  yes. -> 3422.

• pursanovd16. June 2010, 08:03

  This is the latest beta RC- 3422. By the way Web Workers in simple demo doesn't seem to work right. Popups like "Download Copleted" or "New mail" do not open appropriate windows on click. Anyway the release is really good for BETA Thank you.

  Works for me if Opera is open. If closed, I've to click two times (to open opera, then to open the link). [XP-SP2]
  Not a big deal for me.
  The redrawing bugs in WinXP are more serious and anoying (DSK-298637).
  I know i keep repeating this

• Josemi16. June 2010, 08:20

  Please, solve DSK-301804 Office WebApps do not finish loading

• MartinezZ16. June 2010, 08:22

  "Enable sound in webpages" tries to download the voice libraries, that can't be good.

  Ouch, did you file a bug report? :-)
  

• Dillon16. June 2010, 08:32

  I still have serious memory issues that force me to restart the browser every hour or have it crash from using up all the available memory on my system (Windows XP SP3 and this existed in the two most recent builds, the beta RC and the one before it)
  Submitted as DSK-302331

• r2151416. June 2010, 08:33

  HTML5 Video Doesn't work on less than XPSP2 because function DecodePointer not found in kernel32.dll

• Kai Ockendorf16. June 2010, 08:33

  at first: Congratulations for the Beta
  
  I´m a little bit afraid to ask, but will "Hardware Acceleration" be in 10.60 Final??
  
  Looking forward to more bug fixing and more testing

• fajar16. June 2010, 08:35

  1.Did it already Fixed the start bar, cos in 10.60 earlier beta sometime start bar gone blank after I open several tab.....
  
  2. is this version supporting opera voice again or not ? coz I cant install this feature.... I click "voice" and after downloading file that needed, its still unavailable (restarting opera).....I think after downloading file (arround 10.5 Mb) opera will install it automaticlly, do I wrong ? or I do some mistake and I must install it mannualy ? or just simply this feature is unavailable anymore ?
  
  thank

  Hmm. Anyone else here with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia? I don't know *when* but sometime in the last week or so (I haven't checked in that time) an upgrade in Opera has stopped their online banking (www.netbank.com.au) from working.
  
  It accepts my username and password but just returns to the login screen. If I put in incorrect ones, it returns there with the error dialog saying they're not the correct credentials but if ok, it returns with no sign of any error.

• Shirish Kamath16. June 2010, 08:40

  I finally found a condition under which the Start bar doesn't display items
  * Start a new tab
  * Open up a website
  * Minimize the tab
  * Close Opera (leaving the tab open but minimized)
  * Run Opera
  * Click on the minimized tab
  Start bar items are not displayed.
  
  Opera 10.60b/Windows XP

  IRC client bug: responding to an invite to a channel by clicking on the channel name link in the invite message does not work - it opens a blank browser tab and adds a '0.0.0.0' entry to the list of chat servers.
  
  Seen on Mac OS X (intel) and Linux (Ubuntu) builds. Seen on Linux builds since at least 6330.
  
  * log into IRC server
  * 3rd party invites you to another channel
  * new tab appears for private messaging with the 3rd party, containing the invite "XXX has invited you to join the room YYY. Click on the room name if you want to join"
  * clicking YYY results in a blank browser tab opening and a 0.0.0.0 server appearing in the list of configured IRC servers

  In previous builds you could click in textboxes with type="files" and edit the file path (the ones used to submit files), now when you click in one such textbox, the select file dialog window opens.
  
  Example:

• Dan Helekal16. June 2010, 09:14

  Anyone suffering from profile issues after installing the latest beta? The last build did not pick up my existing profile/settings at all...
  
  At least this proved that Opera Link is working and a priceless feature [had to input login data anew though...]
  
  Anyway, great work with the last builds guys!

  Opening a pdf (Email attachment) crashes Opera.
  
  Reported as DSK-302339
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Open a pdf attachment of an email. Adobe Reader is set NOT to open pdf within browser, but in an external Adobe Reader window.
  2. Wait a few minutes
  3. Opera crashes
  
  Clean Install. Can anybody confirm?
  
  I haven't tried to open pdfs from somewhere else. Maybe it's related to Gmail.

• Karol16. June 2010, 09:24

  Still the same bugs:
  - GoogleCalendar: DSK-299587, DSK-298586
  - Facebook: DSK-301561
  
  Thanks for next release but i will use another browser for now ... :/

• vpx16. June 2010, 09:25

  Nice! Now the cool part begins.. beta = more testers = more bug fixing .

• nimu_chan16. June 2010, 09:26

  Thanks! I'll wait for Next.

  In Linux, please add background to the menus if Opera works under KDE:

  Fonts under Ubuntu 10.04 are still somehow wider than on Firefox/Chrome. Bold fonts are too heavy compared to the other browsers. Antialiasing is good now.

• Luca Viozzi16. June 2010, 09:36

  i really love the new speed, but i get sometime the shockwave plugin error :|
  Specially when i'm browsing photos on facebook.
  Anyone can confirm it too?
  And pls fix the popup blocked message that can't be clicked!!
  Xp sp3

  That's exactly what I encounter. And that is a big deal for me.

  1. Facebook login using password manager still isn't working;
  2. On Ubuntu, using pressing any keyboard shortcut that uses Alt stilla always opens O menu;
  3. HTML5 video seek bar still with broken functionality until the video is fully loaded.

  Facebook issue, not a Opera one.
  If you select the usernamefield and then use password manager it works
