The problem is that I didn't know that. Promotions that mention a lot of miscellaneous features make me unconfortable. The (perhaps unfounded) fear of having unneeded code and/or not being able to configure what I want sometimes scares me off. I'm just an amateur so I have to be careful.Beastie said:And the problem is ____? You can use anything you want for the mail (including a third-party application), and you can disable the built-in mail/chat system by adding Show E-mail Client=0 to operaprefs.ini if I'm not mistaken.
Curious to know why mine was so much more memory heavy, I watched its memory usage after a fresh restart. It climbed from 70M to 160M just because of one addon. With the addon disabled now I am just over 100M.DutchDaemon said:I switched from 32-bit to 64-bit recently, and the numbers appear to be virtually the same. I'm now at 156M.
DutchDaemon said:I have FF on about 16 hours a day on my laptop. It never goes much higher than 180M (after 6 hours, it's a 145M RES now). And this is with NoScript, AdBlock, Flash, the works.

Btw what is the bussines model of Opera giving free browser to users ?
they only sell opera for mobile , and they try to spread there browser for free for desktop useralie said:Mine with script and flash plugin. Maybe something wrong with js engine. but still i prefer Firefox than others

I'm not 100% sure what you're talking about, but I suspect you're looking for Tools > Appearance > Buttons > Status. Now drag a Status field wherever you want it. Did I get it right?jb_fvwm2 said:how to have the target of a link hover at mouseover or equivalent.
Are you using FVWM? If you made a FvwmButtons taskbar or something on your page/desktop you can use the Extended Window Manager Hints to ask applications to maximize according to specific coordinates.jb_fvwm2 said:that is hidden by the wm tray if the former exists still
But I still have no idea what you were even talking about...jb_fvwm2 said:Neither of those hints worked, but I discovered by chance immediately, that the three icons at the upper right, the center one, if clicked (a toggle) to show a 2-somthing rather than a 1-something, the bar at the bottom which shows the link target url reappears.
Beastie said:So they can open the source. They would only lose a portion of their revenue from the mobile market and they would recover it elsewhere.
It wouldn't change much since all the agreements (e.g. with search engine) are with Opera Software PLC not with any potential forks (if that ever happened) and there's no reason for these companies to break the agreements.
What do you mean? What third party software? What patents?oliverh said:if they do so they have to cope with lots of software patented by third parties

Beastie said:What do you mean? What third party software? What patents?
Beastie said:Oh, THAT! Virtually all of them are FOSS covered by all kinds of liberal licenses or LGPL AFAIK. So? I don't see how this can prevent Opera Software from opening the source of the Opera browser.
Most of those problems people have with stability in Firefox are more reasonably blamed on one add-on or another.aragon said:Curious to know why mine was so much more memory heavy, I watched its memory usage after a fresh restart.

So what? FreeBSD is FOSS, and even if the BSD license gives anyone the right to take FreeBSD, modify it and redistribute it in a binary format only, the FreeBSD Project still *chooses* to distribute FreeBSD as FOSS.darkshadow said:but I dont know why we are talking about source here , if you use freebsd then you are committed to bsd lances which provide the freedom to provide only binary without source and even build product completely over open source code without provide source for changes or even original one , this freedom if you want always open source go gnu it will make you happy all the ,it is there product and they have freedom to sell t as they want , for me I develop code under bsd linces and I dont mind if go close source n another product,,, :e
Beastie said:I have to install the Qt3 libraries myself for Opera to work. Qt3 is licensed as proprietary, GPL and LGPL. Which one is it for Opera? Would it be the same if it was FOSS? How can, say, KDE or VLC, manage to use Qt?
Opera's "core" as well as the Presto engine are both developed by Opera Software PLC and nothing on their website and elsewhere indicates otherwise. So there's no problem with that if it went FOSS. Is there?
And yes Opera uses many FOSS: OpenSSL Toolkit (Apache), Zlib (zlib License, compatible with GPL), FreeType (GPL and FreeType License), Bitstream Vera (Bitstream License, another liberal license), Hunspell (LGPL and Mozilla). The rest is software provided "as is", without fee, with the permission to use, copy, modify and distribute.
