I always start x as user. I learned early on not to make the
mistake of starting X as root. I use Fluxbox with X, and had a
terminal window open there with root invoked for that window.
That's when I first tried to open linux-opera. Naturally, it
opened fine, but will not open if I try to do the same thing from
a terminal window as user. I would like to set up Opera to open
from the Fluxbox menu, but in order for that to happen the program
needs to be opened as user, which is just what I can't do.
I'm not an opera user so maybe there's a reason I'm not aware of, but
why are you using linux-opera and not the native version?
You can try to run it under truss(1) to see if that gives any clues as
where it's failing.
The reason that I installed linux-opera, as opposed to the native
version, is that all of the linux plugins seem to work quite well with
this version. Flash, for example, works beautifully, which is something
that I have never had success using with any other browser and FreeBSD.
