 Try tar --diff instead:

When using -dvf it prints every filename like when extracting. What should the output look like? Does the output above look like there is no diffrence (except the socket which makes no difference for Opera)?

If it means both filesystems are same then unfortunately Opera doesn't agree with that :-)

Could be something with filesystem layout (i.e. order in which the files are created in directories)? True that tar and mkfs.jffs2 create files is specific/same order but rsync makes it more random so the directory enumeration when not sorted is different?
