Opera 10.60 RC1

June 28, 2010 · by Haavard

This is a release candidate for 10.60 final on Windows, Mac and Linux/FreeBSD.

Remember to keep comments brief and to the point, but still descriptive and relevant. Try to avoid repeating things you have reported in the past, and allow other people's feedback to be heard as well. What we are mainly looking for is major new issues that we may not be aware of, such as recent (within the last few snapshots) regressions.

    This is great for us Linux users, :up: .

    nice...but build 3443?

    anyway, an RC though :D

    yuppii :yikes:

    Can someone confirm this bug? Don't know what snapshot it happened but it was recently.

  • Ken Rushia28. June 2010, 15:37

    DSK-299616 still not fixed? (failure to fallback to ipv4 from DNS when ipv6 doesn't go through)

    I have to use privoxy to get Opera to reach sites like http://lkml.org/ because of this. It also doesn't help that it returns the mysterious "Network problem" and/or "Internal communication error" pages when this happens. All the user sees is Opera can't connect to random sites, but Konqueror, Arora, Chromium, Firefox, and even Lynx can. Surely this doesn't help expand the user base :worried:
  • rsilverblood28. June 2010, 15:37

    Awesome!! I can't wait until final version! n.n
  • nimu_chan28. June 2010, 15:37

    Oh Thanks for desktopteam :happy:
    Just download!!
  • jack gurulian28. June 2010, 15:39

    nice! on yesterdays snapshot i had a crash when using the flashplayer though under arch linux and kde 4.4 :frown:
  • Savageman28. June 2010, 15:40

    Thank you, the last build was already really stable!

    I have a problem with DragonFly I forgot to mention (I don't use it that often). When I open it, it prevents JavaScript to run on the tab DragonFly is active. When I close the DragonFly, it works again, running the scripts that was "waiting".
    Did someone already had this problem?
  • raphWeng28. June 2010, 15:40

    Scrolling seems a little smoother, don't know why.


    Love the stability of the build. (Others have great features in-line though, i.e. Built-in Flash/ PDF, Hardware acceleration, seperate processes for plugins,...)
  • vipin kumar28. June 2010, 15:40

    Can I install this over beta or go for a fresh install?
  • Daniele28. June 2010, 15:41

    Great! waiting for the final release hopefully before the end of the week!

  • MeanEYE28. June 2010, 15:42

    I've noticed one thing. When 2 DIVs with position:absolute are put . One of them has element with outline: 1px solid silver. If I put one DIV above the one with outlined element... everything is covered except for outline.

    You can install it over the beta
  • BS-Harou28. June 2010, 15:45

    I think that only major issue are the missing buttons in starbar, when page is opened in background tab. Otherwise you are good to go! =)

    It's not a problem. There's an option to stop script execution on error. You probably have javascript error somewhere on the page.

    To turn off this option go to Scripts tab and turn off 6th button (hint says "Stop at error")

    Am afraid I can't do that. But I'll make an example HTML...
  • highstream28. June 2010, 15:48

    Two problems in this and 3342, both occurring at the first visit to some sites in a session:

    1) Back button takes 3-5 clicks to get the return. I've seen it happen especially at NY Times and perhaps yahoo.com. This doesn't repeat itself on the next visit in the same session.

    2) at http://www.sportsscientists.com/, click on the comments at the end of a blog entry. Directly under the actual comment box (right) there's supposed to be security text. On first pass it's not loading, but instead showing the text, "Visual verification." Reloading gets it right.

    I clear cache on exit.

    Hoooraayyy .... lets hope for some performance + html5 improvements in next build!!! :D :yes: :no:

    Instant crash STILL on every page under www.expressz.hu, when you click the small pictures.

    http://www.expressz.hu/auto/szemelygepjarmu/hirdetes-21187061/ for example.
  • Lito28. June 2010, 16:00

    Go to this link: http://www.managerzone.com/?p=clubhouse

    You should get redirected to the login screen but in Opera 10.60 you receive an "invalid URL" error message because Opera appends a colon at the end of the domain. Something like this http://www.managerzone.com:/?changesport=soccer&dlink=clubhouse

  • Ferris28. June 2010, 16:00

    I'm having small issues with Google Docs, spreadsheets. Inserting new rows, copy & pasting cells etc... this doesn't appear to be a new issue though most of the 10.6 has similar issues?
  • P4ajo28. June 2010, 16:04

    I'm still experiencing problems with http://slo-tech.com/ which does not display right.

    It displays like http://bayimg.com/cANcAAacg instead of http://bayimg.com/CANCIaacg

    Problem present on XP SP3 and ubuntu 10.4.

    The same behavior in Gecko lateste trunk, Chromium 6, Safari 5, so I expect the behavior is correct.
  • Daniele28. June 2010, 16:06

    don't know if it could be a bug, but html5 geolocation gives a wrong position (about 40-50 Km from where i am )
    Mac osx 10.6.4
  • NRage28. June 2010, 16:07

    DSK-295130 (inline search steals focus when it automatically hides) still not fixed.
    just do a inline search ('.'-key) then select the addressbar - when the "search window" automatically hides it will transfer focus to the web-page.

    Appart from that it looks like its going to be a great release (finally).

    edit: (using Windows7 64bit)
  • Zipampaa28. June 2010, 16:07

    When you place the tab bar to the left or to the right, Panels and Closes Tabs icons are superimposed.

    Try another browser -> is the location same or not?
  • Giuseppe Bilotta28. June 2010, 16:11

    Still crashing when opening 'new version' google documents from docs.google.com (DSK-303229). The funny thing is that the crash is such that Opera doesn't even show the dialog about sending the data to the developers.
  • sacharja28. June 2010, 16:11

    Hm, was updating my latest snapshot and now Google is no longer working. Neither the search box nor the address (g search) is showing any hits on Google. Opera inserts the parameter "&num=0" although my config says: "Number Of Hits=50". However this is now just present in my INI. Number of Hits is no longer accessible through opera:config.

    What a coincidence that this just happens now that Bing is the new standard search engine P:
  • NaturalDisaster28. June 2010, 16:12

    A minor, unimportant bug. The search engines list shows the Bing icon both for Bing and Ask.com.
  • Bill P28. June 2010, 16:14

    the geolocation page suggested as a test fails for me in 64bit Linux

    The search field is still not working. :frown:

    when you read an email and then click back to the inbox or to a label, the opera remains in the bottom of the page, he should return to the top.

    Good work guys.
    Still waiting for DeviantArt ( http://www.deviantart.com/ ) to be working just fine (top line of results). I had some other bugs but they may be skin + Aero + going fullscreen-and-back (game) related so I won't post them before diagnosing without skin.

    Firefox has bugs as well and set of great incompatible add-ons P: I'm still using both + Chrome bug

    - Hi, impossible for me to share my articles on my Facebook page.

    Share button has no effect if the "exprimez-vous" area is empty (works fine on others browsers)

    http://img4.glowfoto.com/images/2010/06/27-2328542240L.jpg


    - When i click on mail icon in Windows Live Messenger and if opera is opened, the opened tab is private and i always need to enter username and password manually.

    But if i click on mail icon in Windows Live Messenger when Opera is closed, there isn't problem, Opera is opening and the tab is normal and i don't have to login, i'm already logged.

    Finally it's the same thing for all functions who open a link.


    I had these problems with last official Opera release, then i tried this last beta build but i got the same problem, same with the RC :/

    Opera for Windows
  • madcati28. June 2010, 16:32

    I have a problem with https://mojebanka.cz. This site allows me to login to my bank account management, but since last two or three builds Opera won't display the certificate/password fields. It worked fine in the first build that had Java support for Unix. It also works fine in other browsers. I'm on Arch 64. Attached pictures show correct behavior and the problem I have with Opera.
