Hmmm...

I don't think that command had anything to do with it. Try "which opera", that might show you where the opera executable file is. After you find it, you could do something like

$ ln -s /usr/bin/opera /home/alan/opera

to create a shortcut from the /usr/bin/opera file to your home directory (or change the second address to put it somewhere else).

If you do a "ls -l" in your home directory, you may see something like

"lrwxrwxrwx  1 alan  alan       152 Jun  3 13:08 opera > /usr/bin/opera"

which means a shortcut is already present, since you said that Opera was appearing in your home directory.

Running Mandrake 10 community.I did get Opera to show up in my Home dir after I did this: su -c /opt/kde/bin/kwrite
At least I guess that why it shows up there now
