@bollingg said in How Do I Keep Opera One From Installing?:

Thank you for your speedy reply. I just got a Ubuntu laptop and have never done anything Linux yet. I have to learn how to use DM. Thanks again.

Just to be clear:
I use DM to refer to the graphical environment you've chosen.
As I mentioned, I'm using the "KDE Plasma" desktop environment.

You might be using GNOME desktop environment (typically default for Ubuntu). So, you can modify the Opera icon to change its settings as I've shown. Normally, you would right-click on the icon and select (something like) "Edit Application settings"

Having same problem. In chrome spellcheck is now accessed through "left-click" and the right click gives the same context menu as seen in opera (font, emoji etc). It would be great to have a solution to this. I would happily lose the "useless" right click context menu to have spell check back...

And, right on que, there has been an Opera Developer update that includes a chromium update and appears to render correctly. I will check for a few more days before declaring a fix, but it looks good.

You didn't specify which DM you're using,
(I'm using Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma)

But here's a real-world sample showing how to apply the "no update" argument, using KDE Plasma DM.

Check the screenshot ... it shows the "properties" dialog, for the Opera app, that is specific to KDE Plasma. Adjust for whatever DM you're using.

The main point is to apply the string, " --disable-update" to the argument list (don't forget the leading space) that is added to the command-string to start Opera.

I managed to get rid of that doing
curl -fsSL https://deb.opera.com/archive.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/opera.gpg > /dev/null
and
echo deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/opera.gpg] https://deb.opera.com/opera-stable/ stable non-free | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera.list
In general I followed this blog post.

Hope this helps.

I would have re-started the browser and be done with it 👍

Update: I finally resolve this. There is a line in settings that Retain tabs from previous session has an option underneath:
Display the Start Page first
and this was toggled on. Once I turned that off, now only the linked page opens.

@vr51

I will admit this ... I use openSuse Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma on 2 desktops and two laptops.

I use Chrome, Chrome Beta, Brave, Firefox, Opera ... they all have the "missing KDE titlebar". It's a trend. KDE can be partly to blame.

I also use openSuse MicroOS Kalpa in a VM (testing it out). It's an immutable rolling release operating system (with KDE Plasma) and all apps exist as flatpaks (can use rpms too). I did the same workaround for browsers in MicroOS.

Anyway - onward thru the fog ...

@xzero said in [Solved]Solving the problem of the Opera browser with video playback in Ubuntu and similar distributions (Linux Mint, KDE neon):

Can confirm this solved the issue for me.
I figured out how to use snap library, as @mr-matt-eastwood suggested.

On Manjaro Linux 20, opera directory is /usr/lib/opera.
You don't have to delete original libffmpeg.so file, but just rename it to whatever (including extension).

Steps:
# If you cannot use sudo -i, then just prefix your commands with sudo sudo -i # Close your browser by hand. Following command will ensure no Opera processes are running in the background killall opera cd /usr/lib/opera # Some software automatically loads any .so/.dll file that is present. Not sure for Opera, but just in case mv libffmpeg.so libffmpeg.so_original snap install chromium-ffmpeg # Please note that chromium-ffmpeg-95241 path might differ. Just pickup one with highest number. ln -sf /snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-95241/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.so libffmpeg.so
Works like charm.

This worked for me!
