glad you got it fixed r3bol.

To make it easier, why not just add opera to your sources.list file?

So, become root, type nano /etc/apt/sources.list and add one of these two lines:

For AntiX 6.5 (Ubuntu base):

Code: Select all

deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu dapper-commercial main

For AntiX 7 (Debian base):

Code: Select all

deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free

That way, you can just apt-get install opera & be able to get updates for it.

That makes it too easy angryfirelord

Thanks for your tips, and welcome to antiX...and.. Keep posting your advice.

hehe, that's what you get from hanging around Ubuntu folk.

So far, antiX is stuck in VirtualBox, but I'm considering moving it to another machine just because of how responsive it is. Thank you for your awesome distro!

Never had a problem installing Opera but thought I would experiment with Angryfirelord's suggestion and try the install through synaptic. After reloading repos I received a public keys error message but synaptic still downloaded and installed a working Opera.
