Was able to resolve this by following this post: https://forums.opera.com/topic/11041/vines-don-t-work/3

The only difference being, I'm on Arch Linux, and so my package name was different (from the AUR, aur/opera-ffmpeg-codecs).

Hi @draki @tlromulo, you can try the following steps: open a terminal window, and execute the below commands as root (or use another user account with administrator privileges):
`apt-get install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra cd /usr/lib/x86\_64-linux-gnu/opera-beta && mkdir lib\_extra && cd lib\_extra`
For Opera beta 31:
`ln -s /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libs/libffmpeg.so libffmpeg.so.31`
For Opera beta 32:
`ln -s /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libs/libffmpeg.so libffmpeg.so.32`

thanks for your reply.

So sad anyway. hoping Opera devs will think about something "default dark theme" (not all people likes light and luminous tints).

Will see.

I posted this in Opera for Windows accidentally, but this is with Opera browser 31.0.1889.174 on Linux (RPM).

The openssl version is OpenSSL 1.0.1k 8 Jan 2015. Squid's version, for all it matters, is 3.4.4.

I don't have the adobe-flashplugin package on Ubuntu 15.04.

You need to add the "Canonical Partners" software source to get this package.

avl, was using nouveau. Followed the directions on your above Ubuntu link and switched driver this morning (12 hours ago) to using:
NVIDIA binary driver version 346.82 from nvidia-346 (proprietary, tested) and Opera dev 32 has not locked up my PC or froze on me once!

Keeping my fingers crossed.

PS: Just discovered Opera 31.0.1889.99 is now operational!
I have both Opera dev 32 and Opera 31 installed.
Opera 31 would lockup my PC as soon as I hit any bookmark tab rendering it totally useless. Now that the driver was changed Opera 31 seems to be running A-OK again!

@cybrsaylr, and anyone else having an issue with video/audio, I installed a package called "opera-ffmpeg-codecs" that resolved this. The video/audio that didn't work on certain sites are now working with this package, you just have to find it.

ffmpeg.org should be of some help. Or you can just search for the package yourself.

Hi @hartmuthaase, the default location of the Opera developer's profile should be ~/.config/opera-developer, and the cache folder ~/.cache/opera-developer.
You can check the paths in Opera's menu > About Opera (opera:about) > Paths.

The setting of the custom engines, and for the default engine, are stored in the "Web Data" file, which is located in the Opera's profile folder.

Additionally, you can find more info about, what data are stored, in the individual profile files, here.

They don't necessarily need to implement a KDE or GTK3 menu

Indeed, as it was in Opera 12.

Wonder what users of Opera browsers (on all platforms) should expect/have to do now?

Is there any chance that the current developers team with their experience and the right to commit patches into WebKit repository (granted them by Apple & Google exactly because of experience) will be preserved?

Try removing the master password in Firefox, and then import to Opera. Make sure to backup Firefox folder first.
I've had the same issue, and it only loaded logins, not the passwords, and that works up until the version 29. After the update to Opera 30 no imported logins/passwords showed at all, until I downgraded back to version 29. and I am still on 29. so it may even be impossible to import logins/passwords to version 31. if they didn't fix that, or they even may call it a "new feature" instead of a bug.

My problem is that clicking the mouse wheel inside the browser does not work at all

Do you mean that you want so scroll/pan while holding the mouse wheel down? This is a windows specific feature, so it's not a bug that it wont work.
