Hi Martin…

well i downloaded Opera 9.5 as soon as i read your RSS feed. it does open a lot of the websites which previously dint open in opera. however, the first problem i noticed was that it takes a LOT OF TIME to start. opera 9.27 was quick. this one seems to eat a lot of memory and CPU resources. frankly i was disappointed with this version just for this reason. the older opera was so much quicker and smooth.
anyone else having the same problem??

Hey Martin…

In reference to my post above… well previously i had installed the new version over my previous one, i.e. upgraded it. later, i uninstalled opera and did a fresh install and everything became super cool…
opera’s my favourite browser once again… and frankly, mozilla can go suck an egg…

Cool but I am waiting few more updates. :) It was in beta for months but there are always few bugs only release reveals - especially in major update.

>however, the first problem i noticed was that it takes a LOT OF TIME to start. opera 9.27 was quick. this one seems to eat a lot of memory and CPU resources

Sounds a lot like inplace upgrade issue… If you just dropped 9.50 on top of 9.27 try clean install instead.

Opera 9.5 seemed to be having a strange problem when working with wordpress. I attempted to write up a quick post, but whenever I hit the enter button it actually moved the current paragraph down and started the new one above it. Maybe it’s just me, but that’s pretty much a make or break deal for me. If I can’t update my blog, then it’s bye-bye opera.

@Angelo R.: Post the issue in the Opera Community forum. The devs of Opera Team do take a look at the posts from time to time.

[...] 先要向大家报告一个消息,这篇文章是我用火狐浏览器来写的,我原本是想用opera 9.5来写的,可是在我的博客后台(wordpress)上,在Visual(可视)模式下,我根本打不进一个字。我多希望这是我一个人碰到的问题,可是我随便在google里键入opera 9.5 wordpress bug,就找到了和我一样遭遇的人,一个人是用opera 9.5 rc(候选版),一个人是像我一样用的最终版(反映情况都是在评论当中)。可是别忘了,候选版和最终版之间发布只隔了1天多一点的时间,我很难想象在这一天多里这个版本会有什么改变。 [...]

I installed 9.5, and apart from disliking the overall look of the thing, there’s one small problem I can’t seem to overcome. All my bookmarks have lost their icons. This is infuriating, since I can’t instantly spot the one I want, but have to laboriously read through them. Have I missed something obvious, or does anyone else have the same problem ?

>disliking the overall look of the thing
Change skin - solved.

>All my bookmarks have lost their icons.
Was it clean install or on top of previous version? Anyway my educated guess is that they are going to reappear when you visit corresponding sites.

Binx says:

It was on top of previous version, which is why I was surprised. But no, the icons haven’t reappeared after visiting sites !!!

Rarst says:

Do you get icons on new bookmakrs? If you do - try cleaning opera cache and killing icons files manually (don’t remember exact place, just look for tons of tiny graphic files in Opera folders).

If you don’t - time to try clean install and bug-report.

Have anyone know how to downgrade from 9.5 to 9.27?

Sancho says:

I too was psyched to see 9.5 come out, but I’ve got a few complaints/words of warning for early adopters:

1. Attempting to download files by left clicking the link opens a new page and the percentage stalls almost immediately, typically less the 10%. The right-click “Save Linked Content As…” option seems to work, but files are often corrupted (e.g., zips won’t open, but are fine if i d/l with IE 7). Right-click option doesn’t work for files that auto-launch once a page starts to load.

2. Some web sites refuse to open (again, the stalled x% complete problem). They open fine in IE 7.

both the above probs do not occur in Opera 9.27.

NB: If you use Opera for email BE WARNED! A new format is in use, and if you convert your mail you cannot downgrade to 9.27 and still use mail (browser will work but you will not have access to your mail). Reupgrading to 9.5x works fine, mail is there, but so are the aforementioned problems.

Guess I’ll go post on the Community forums and hopefully find a fix.
