If you are tired of waiting forever for konqueror or netscape or |
| 2 |
mozilla to load, give the new opera beta a try. |

There may be a few sites tht won't work, but none of the ones I |
| 5 |
visit regularly have any problems. Multiple windows and |
| 6 |
downloads work like a champ. |

Here's what I did. |

|

1. Go to www.opera.com/downloads and get the dynamic tar.gz |
| 11 |
file |
| 12 |
2. su (if this doesn't work, your user needs to be in group |
| 13 |
wheel and fix the wheel user list |
| 14 |
to allow your user) (or do the install from root). |
| 15 |
3. cd /usr/src |
| 16 |
4. cp path.to.opera.file.gz . (wherever you put the file) |
| 17 |
5. tar xvzf opera.file.gz (the file on /usr/src) |
| 18 |
6. cd opera.dir (the directory just created) |
| 19 |
7. sh install.sh -s |
| 20 |
8. run opera (use run box under xfce or from a terminal under |
| 21 |
kde or gnome opera &) |
| 22 |
9. enjoy |
