Oddly there isn't. So what I did was startx 2>/tmp/xlog
and I discovered from that that the X server is
starting up with color depth 8.
So in startx , I changed xinit to "xinit -- -bpp 18"
Now Opera starts fine .. hooray!
xinit -- -bpp 24 also works but the text is a bit squashed.
Probably just needs a bit of tweaking.

Thank you very much Steven, Your questions provided
the answers.

Ian
