hi,

I'm using MX-14.2 & i keep it fully updated. A fair number of sites complain about me using an old browser. My vers of Opera is 12.16 whereas the Opera site says the latest is 26 - however, i can't find a 32 bit vers.
Yes, i could use a different browser.
Yes, i could use a 64 bit distro.
Does anyone have any other ideas please??

opera 12 is very old. they actually stopped linux development for a while and they are only supporting 64 bit UBUNTU for now.

an interesting option might be to force opera to use a different user agent string, making opera appear to be a more up to date browser.

Opera developer 27. Which I run is only built right now for 64bit.

You don not have to be Ubuntu to install and run it.

Install instructions outside of Ubuntu




User agent switcher addon for Opera. I can't swear it will work on Opera 12. You can uninstall it if it does not work.
