Opera
Installing Opera on test machines is easy. From a shell, run these commands as root:
wget ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/linux/910/final/en/i386/static/opera-9.10-20061214.1-static-qt.i386-en.rpm rpm -vi opera-9.10-20061214.1-static-qt.i386-en.rpm
This installs version 9.10. To learn about the most recent builds of Opera, check the Opera desktop blog and select the statically linked rpm packages for Unix/intel-linux.
Opera offers keyboard shortcuts that may come handy:
- q/a navigates up/down in links
- w/s navigates up/down in headings
- 9/0 zooms page out/in
