I just investigate with CC, the second sudo command was needed. Now Opera starts.
The issue is clear. Opera rev 440 now requires the gpu-2404 content snap (for GPU/hardware acceleration support on Ubuntu 24.04), but the slot is not connected. Fix: sudo snap install mesa-2404 sudo snap connect opera:gpu-2404 mesa-2404 Then start Opera normally. This connects the GPU provider that Opera 129 requires. Why this happened: Opera updated to use a new GPU content snap interface (gpu-2404) for better hardware acceleration on Ubuntu 24.04. The snap was updated but the required mesa-2404 provider snap wasn't automatically installed/connected. -

I confirm. I'm getting so tired of this they release an update without ANY basic checks whether it works or not on Linux system. This is ridiculous.
sudo snap revert operasaved the day for me

Hey Guys,
Apologies for that issues. Just wanted to tell you, we're aware of this and work on the fixes.
We aim to release new version on snap store, hopefully somewhere next week.

I don't have updates yet.
Developers are still investigating this issue as apparently the last fix didn't fix the problem.I should know more in upcoming days.
In the meantime, did you try to use older versions? For example 127.

Any update on this bug? To this day I still can't use Opera on my Ubuntu which kinda sucks since Opera is always my default browser.
My Fedora is running flatpak Opera with no issues.
I already removed and installed Opera via snap a bunch of times and still the same error.
I tried manually soft linking the files and still crashes:$ ls -lZ /home/<user>/snap/opera/455/.config/gtk-3.0/

@Jaroslav68 Me too. I was using Opera and it being updated several times a week, when it just failed to load. I tried to re-download, wouldn't work. I tried to uninstall, would not do it cleanly. Several attempts at a fresh download and it downloaded a folder with some files, but no "setup" file. And that's as far as it gets. I see several people have this or similar problems. The only saving grace is that Firefox have put a VPN into their browser, but it is not as good as the Opera browser, which I was getting very used to. Please advise how I can download a fresh Opera browser. My machine is a Dell 7020 running Linux Ubuntu. Many thanks. GJ.
