"There are two basic types of installations, static and shared: *Static version*: Opera has the Qt library built in. It is a larger download, and it does not use anti aliased fonts on menus or the file chooser, and uses aliasing in the browser window and most other interface elements. *Shared version*: Opera uses the Qt installation on your system. It integrates with the system, using whatever anti aliasing setting you have for other Qt applications. Which is better? Probably the Shared version. Try the other one if you run into installation problems." _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
