I've just installed Opera 8.52 on BL 3.50
and it works fine.  The instructions given
for 3.40 still work for 3.50:
---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

Here's what I did:

install glibc-solibs-2.3.1 package
install misc-libs package
install x-libs package
unpack opera-8.52-static-qt.i386 package
execute install.sh
answer "yes" for everything
execute startx
click on xterm
execute opera

The only real issue is that Opera 8 is very
hard to find.  Just about everyone has moved
to Opera 9.  Perhaps Opera 9 works too?
Maybe, maybe not.  Anybody care to try it?
What I can say for sure is that Opera 8.52
works as specified on BL 3.50.  If Opera 9
does not work, then I will make the Opera 8 
package available at the BasicLinux site.

Cheers,
Steven
