Opera Releases a New Version For Linux

Posted by Unknown on from the not-quite-abandoned dept.

motang (1266566) writes "Opera released Opera 24 for Linux. Currently it is in testing (developer) mode, and only for 64-bit Ubuntu, but hey it's a start since everyone thought Linux support was abandoned. In my test it is pretty rough around the edges, only has ambiance theme as it has been hard coded, and all the window controls are on the right and not on the left like what Unity has. But it is a start."

    There's even a "Let's rebuild Opera as it was" open-source effort

    I just tested out chromium (the non-google version of chrome) and that allows you to add chrome extensions without a Google account.
