Opera does not open links in new tab

Due to my work I often deal with links containing UTM tags. May the presense of UTMs in the address of the link affect the problem?

@avl I've also found one interesting peculiarity: when this problem happens to a page (I Command - click on a link and the page in the hew tab is blank), in case I right-click on this same link and select "Open in new tab" in the context menu, the page in new tab loads OK. So I do not think it has to do with memory at all. It's just some bug. Technically nothing interferes with opening a new Tab, but it just does not work properly

We've found the cause of this issue and hopefully we can release a fix soon. When you have this problem, try doing this as a workaround:

• Enable the Developer menu if you haven't yet (View -> Show Developer Menu)
• Click Developer -> Task Manager
• Select "GPU process" and click "End Process"

This should bring back the blank tabs.

@avl The workaround hint you provided works OK, thank you! Really helps. How will we know when the fix is released? (even with the hint the issue is really annoying)

I'm having the same problem (sent email weeks ago). Mac is MBP (2009) 2.8ghz core 2 duo 8MB
tabs open under existing tab and URL of existing tab stays the same but the page displays content from the original page - not the tab-opened page. clearing cache works for a day or so.
