I have Opera up and running it was as easy as windows, I dl from opera
site and double clicked on the deb file and it installed nicely.

I did freeze three times so far, each time was after performing a
function, adding a cd with jpgs UB froze nothing worked I had to reboot,
after installing Dia and inkspot the close screen came up and froze,
another reboot and a third time but I forgot what was going on when that
happened.

I just dl flash but it's a archive file and the screen comes up to extract
the files but I can't find either Opera or Firefox folders in the choices
to extract to.

Any who I will play with this somemore over the weekend.
