Hi;
I am on Ubuntu 14.04.2 platform. I have "Opera developer 32.0" installed. It starts faster as compared to other browser but when I type in address bar letters appear after 10 seconds. I wonder it's a bug or related to my distro.

Hi,

May be it's a variation of this issue: https://forums.opera.com/topic/10416/garbage-on-page-weird-page-display-opera-31-on-ubuntu-14-04-32-bits

I had issues with the address bar too, although your case looks different at first sight: do you use a low latency kernel? If so, try to reboot with the generic kernel to see if it changes anything.

To know what kernel is active, type “ uname -r ” in a terminal.

Do you only have this problem in Opera developer?

Thank you for responding. I checked out the case in the link, both issue are different. It seems to be painting/drawing issue in the link. Mine seems to be a query issue.It's a kind of lag in application's address bar query API. I installed 4.0.3-040003-generic kernel.

@gustavwiz Thank you for responding. What other versions are available? It runs well in older versions such as 12.16

Yes, but 12.16 is Opera Presto, which is a totally different browser.

May be a stupid question, whatever, here is: what's your default search engine?

I already tried switching from yandex to google search engine which makes no difference.

Opera Beta and Opera stable. Do you have the same problem there?

Opera Beta and Opera stable are not available for 32 bit.

Then I can do a wild assuming and say that you have a 32-bit OS?

What I suggest is that you make a bug report where you provide all informations and details you have. Here's the link to the bug reporter:

Yes I have a 32-bit-OS. Thank you for the link. By the way, is Opera a clone of Chrome?

It is not. It's a Blink based browser, which happens to be used by Chrome too, but Opera Blink is not Chrome nor Chromium.

Blink is a renderer: http://blog.chromium.org/2013/04/blink-rendering-engine-for-chromium.html

Chromium is an open source browser, mainly developed by Google, but also from other contributors. Chromium use Blink as rendering engine, and Blink is a fork of WebKit. Google Chrome is based and Chromium, and the only difference, besides the name, is that Chrome comes with a bit extra closed source code like flash, auto update etc. Opera is also based on Chromium, but only from Opera version 15.
