Also, That was back in the 7.x branch of Opera and I believe it was |
| 14 |
available but looked like crap; or I was using a beta that wasn't |
| 15 |
available for linux yet; or it was binary-only and I was installing Gentoo |
| 16 |
(therefore wanted the advantages of compiling from source); or it just |
| 17 |
didn't integrate with KDE (my desktop environment of choice) as well. |
