Opera Software ASA

Plug-in documentation for Linux users is here:

http://www.opera.com/linux/docs/plugins/

Once the plug-in is installed, and Opera has been restarted, make sure that Opera can find it: select Tools > Advanced > Plug-ins to see if the plug-in is listed.

If the plug-in is not listed, select Tools > Preferences > Advanced > Content and click the button marked Plug-in options. At the bottom of the ensuing dialogue, the current plug-in path is given. Click Change Path, and add the path appropriate to your plug-in.

For versions of Opera prior to Opera 9, you need to have Motif/libmotif installed:

http://www.opera.com/linux/docs/plugins/install/motif/

If you do not have Motif installed, you will see a failed dependency: libXm.so.2. You can still force an install, but without Motif, Opera will not be able to display Netscape plug-ins or Java applets.
