Most likely, it is trying to use /root/.opera for your profile and is crashing early in the startup because the regular user can't write there. I would save any bookmarks or other useful items and then delete the folder. I haven't run into this in FreeBSD but you can get similar problems in Windows if a global profile is created in C:\Program Files\Opera by an administrator. -- Rob Farmer _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
