      Every 10-15 minutes there's a popup with some google authentication stuff. it closes down after 1-2 seconds. It does however minimize everything else(or go in top of f.e. games/movies), which is super annoying.

      I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 - Opere 43.0.2442.806.

      Any pointers?

          Thanks.

          Your solution didn't work unfortunately.

          Recent change was reinstalling from Linux Mint 18 to Ubuntu 16.04. I guess that's where it started.

            Just as a fresh install? Nothing installed?

            It's time and date rigth set?

              It's a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 installation. Opera is version 43.

                  The fresh install question was about Opera.

                    It's a fresh opera install. Yes.

                      Some other software is running then - an email checker or similar. Opera itself doesn't do that. It doesn't even know I have a Google account (though as I also own an Android tablet I do have an account) and has never asked me for one. Or a tab is open to some page using Google services perhaps.
