Opera 26 For Linux Now Available

#1 Post by labbe5 »

http://www.webupd8.org/2014/12/opera-26 ... linux.html

Fans of Opera browser will be happy to use the newly available Opera 26 for Linux.

The FAQ adds that the license permits re-packaging Opera for use on other distributions, so Opera can be packaged or even included in a software repository for other Linux distributions.

For those of you who haven't kept an eye on the Opera development, it's important to mention that the web browser now uses the Blink engine (since version 15 on Windows), a fork of the WebCore component of WebKit that's also used in Chrome, and it includes quite a few changes and new features, like:
•Discover (shows news and other articles in various categories, somewhat like Stumbleupon);
•graphical bookmarks with sharing support;
•improved Speed Dial with Coast-style tiles instead of screenshots (this is optional and you can still use the old Speed Dial);
•integrated PDF viewer;
•supports Pepper Flash (but it doesn't come bundled with Opera);
•tab previews on mouse over (not enabled by default);
•support for H.264 and MP3 (on Linux, this requires FFmpeg 2.3+);
•HiDPI support;
•improved Opera Turbo;
•more.

For Linux, the Opera 26 download page only offers Ubuntu 64bit deb binaries.

Few moons ago I have posted 3 SFSes namely..
Opera Stable 26.0.1656.60,
Beta 27.0.1689.33
and Developer 28.0.1719.0
versions For Fatdog64-700.

See http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=97099

I am putting off making latest versions due to lack of time but I will make new Beta and Dev SFSes in a few days.

Thanks.

Thanks Neeraj, I've used Beta 27.0.1689.33 since you made the SFS and liked it a lot, for speed and UI terseness. Could you please include pepperflash also in your next update?

@neerajkolte

Just check out my post I guess at LQ.

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... ost5307430

Look at my imagur shot showing plugins. I have been running Opera developer for a while and ShockWave Flashplayer 99.999.r999 comes bundled
in with Opera already out of the box.

There is no shockwave linux player available, it is only a opera thing I guess.
Maybe my post will help. Maybe not. Won't hurt to look though.

Good Luck Bro, Rok
