Ah.  That explains everything. (-:

You have a "libc 5" distribution.  Sometime in 1999, libc version 6
was released.  Libc 6 is also known as glibc (GNU libc).  Libc 6 is
forwards incompatible, meaning that programs compiled for libc 6 won't
run on libc 5 systems.  Libc is the C runtime library.  99.9% of
the programs on your system depend on it.

IMO, you ought to go ahead and upgrade to a libc 6 distribution.
You could check the opera site to see if they have a libc 5 binary,
but you'll keep running into more incompatible programs.
