long time no play here: is there a known issue here with java/flash and opera?
just resuscitated a discarded XP machine, p4 w/ 256mb memory. machines a tad slow and is short on peripherals -- 18gb HD, plain cd player, 1 usb -- but the needs are simple, mostly internet and writing. chose a frugal install of Wary 5.3.
Opera's my preferred browser. downloaded the sfs and loaded it through the boot manager. very nice, but.....
installed current flash and java -- both of which work in SeaMonkey -- but, though it claims to detect both plugins, neither works in Opera.
a google search revealed this is not wholly unusual, but i found no solutions.
am open to suggestions.
thanks,
rich
p.s.... meant to put this in the Opera 12.02 sfs thread below. sorry about that. can someone move this to a proper place? thanks, again.
opera 12.02.sfs and java/flash

Semme....thanks for the suggestion, but there's no joy here in Mudville. seems to me that it's something related to Wary with Opera 12.02. i did a frugal install of Lupu 5.28 with the same cast of characters and they all play together just fine, so it looks like my choice of Puppy versions is being decided for me.
best to ya,
