Opera 11.50 has been released

Thanks, it'll be installed, as always. Converted from IE to Opera, 11 years ago. Never looked back.
 
Its page rendering appears much improved. But a new problem: while all the fonts at this forum are fine, any text typed into the google.com search dialog, as well as "secondary" text in (about a third of sites are affected) some news sites, etc (past the headline), are in a almost-unreadable cursive (handwriting) script. I haven't found where that is set in the fonts selection, the .Xdefaults, etc etc. Maybe unique to this machine somewhere; even trying to search in "opera:config", almost all the text on THAT page is in the near-unreadable type... (unless switching author mode >> user mode maybe). Nor did the "Managing author mode" customization dialog present a clue...
/edit.........../
Gave up. Earlier 11-version from backups. Clunkier from before the upgrade (some customizations lost probably), but I am used to it already.
/edit2..........
Trial and error in Menu >> Appearance, and everything is peachy in the former version once more.

No problem with textfields or SSL, but flash videos don't work anymore. Just html-code is shown.

Try to open:
https://linx.bsdroot.lv/ and tell me how long it takes to open it.
It should be longer than 3s, but with opera it can take over 15s (minimum) for initial connection. Then it will work fine until connection expires (something like that)
 
WTF, for me initial connection takes up to 15 seconds... with Opera 11.11 and 11.50.
And the server is less then 50m of physical wire away.

This is asking for deep Wiresharking...
 
Ok, now it works including flash, it was no fun (deleting ini files while keeping session, "CSS mode" was set to 0 ...)

It opened in a reasonable time for me as well. ...probably a second or two before the ssl error, then about a second before the page was loaded. This was about the same for chromium and firefox. I'm using a seven-year-old laptop running 8.2-RELEASE. Here is the information from the opera about page:

Looks like Opera doesn't request my cert via Online Certificate Status Protocol (unlike Firefox and Chrome)
:(

Looks like I'll be sticking to Firefox for a while.

Beware of those rapid updates then, moment of forgetfulness and You will be several major releases behind without any security updates ;)
 
After using Firefox for some time, I'm back to Opera now. I had some rendering issues with fonts and some web pages, but these are gone. Opera even uses the gtk theme I have installed. This is a very nice browser :) .
 
I'm trying to use some of the Opera widgets in FreeBSD (Twiget, etc) and they barf with a gibberish dilaog box with an OK and Cancel button. Anyone else encounter this?
 
The exact message is:
Code: 
Could not start external helper application. Do you want to modify the configuration now?

I tried selecting Opera as the external application but no luck,
