Hello everyone. I'm an engineering working at Telematic and was curious if anyone knew if I could use Opera on our linux system? Anything helps, thanks.

Wrong forum - Linux has its own forum (though they call it *nix to be generic). As long as you use Intel 64-bit architecture, Opera should run fine. Mind you, they only distribute it in *.deb packages (the format used by Debian, Ubuntu, and related distros), but Ruario has a guide for how to install it on other distros.

Can't search new version of Opera for Fedora (rpm package). Only .deb package available.
I find only varsion 12.10.

"""IMPORTANT: SUGGESTION/REQUEST!"""
I have troubles installing Opera under Debian 7.4 because it requires libc 2.15 or above, unfortunatedly, the standard Debian releases come with libc 2.13, and after installing 2.15, many SERVICES and portions of many applications simply stop working or complaint about many things, for example, VLC stops reading DVDs, postgresql extras like multiple presision (gmp) starts giving zeroes as results for some calculations that used to work, libvirt/qemu/kvm, start giving errors and my local VPSs stop working at all, and the bridges configured for the libvirt stop working and they just wont start, it was so bad that I had to REINSTALL the whole OS again.
Could there be a version of Opera, compiled for libc 2.13? so we don't have to tweak the system and install libc 2.15?, I offer myself to compile it for both architectures amd64 and i386, just point me to the right direction.
I really need it since I also need to test the compatibility of my WEB applications for all browsers. -

The 32-bit packages we released a couple of days back should work on Debian 7.4. We will try to fix this for 64-bit with the next stable release.
