Thank you for your notification.

I installed Opera Developer 126.0.5748.0 (DEB) and tested it.

In this version, the UI language has been replaced with the specified language.

I think this is a very good update and hope it will be implemented in Opera Stable.

crashing ubuntu 22.10

Just to add to the list: I saw the same error with "chrome/browser/process_singleton_posix" when updating to 125.0.5729.12 on Ubuntu. I "fixed" it based on @zibi1981 suggestion above, as follows:
opera --ozone-platform=x11
From my crude understanding, it would again point to wayland vs x11 issue, but anyway, just sharing in case someone else ends up here after seeing opera crash on startup in Ubuntu.

I tested in Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon (X11) with the deb packages of Opera Stable 125.0.5729.15 and Opera Developer 126.0.5742.0. I can indeed confirm that the --window-position and --window-size command-line arguments are indeed ignored by Opera and work fine in Chrome.

Indeed seems like a bug to me. Filed RNA-1806 as I don't think the issue is known (except by us here).

@BES234 A very belated response. I ran into the same problem, after reading at Netflix' forums that Opera is the only Linux browser supporting 1080p, I wanted to use this. Got the same error as you. After checking I had set it up correctly, I vaguely remembered I had to disable Secure Boot to install Linux, with the important reminder I can re-enable it later. So, I went into my computer's BIOS settings and re-enabled Secure Boot, and after that, playback on Netflix through Opera works for me.

@vittucci The solution is to run as x11. Just run opera --ozone-platform=x11

Before we were able to set flags by going into opera://flags. But it's removed now.

So run with the provided command -> update the .desktop file to use the command

My favourite browser is Opera and I would like it to work on Linux Debian 13.2 the same as it does on Windows Pro 11. I dual boot Linux and Windows and have been using Opera for many years. Please fix the mouse handles to work on diagonal corners.

A bug in the update rollout resulted in MV2 extensions being unavailable. This was not intentional, and we stopped the rollout immediately in order to address the bug. Nothing has changed since our latest blog post regarding supporting MV2 extensions - if we reach a point where we can no longer support them, we will inform users accordingly. Please stay tuned for a fix. Thank you for your patience!
