I can hear Halloween fireworks. I hope no-one comes to the door expecting sweets on Guy Fawkes night!

Looks like my move to Ubuntu may have failed. I need @opera for my e-mail; I've copied across my .opera directory, checked the permissions, but I get an error dialog ...

The dialog says:

There was a problem initialising Opera Mail.

Failed to open the following file:

/home/tony/.opera//mail/omailbase.dat

Restart your system and try again. If that does not work, restoration from your backup source might be necessary. If that is not possible or does not work, report a bug on http://bugs.opera.com/wizard/ and search the forums for help with this issue.

Not sure why this should differ between openSUSE and Ubuntu, but if I can't get Opera working correctly with my e-mail under Ubuntu, then I can't move to Ubuntu.

Anyone know if #compiz runs under #VMware #Fusion 3? 3-D effects would be interesting in #Ubuntu VM, as well as Win7 VM

Odd, now I have a craving for smoked bacon.

Hairdresser must havew had a cig or 6 before cutting my hair; was immersed in a cloud of her 2nd hand vapours

Have copied 1/2 of my files from openSUSE to Ubuntu. Sadly, no evidence yet that Ubuntu will be better; just hope it won't be too much worse
