I've noticed Opera placing its logo on the panel (I"m running MATE), but for me it doesn't start Opera, it opens or closes the window I already have open. You may find it on some menu, or if all else fails try starting from the command line.

Manually but I installed and the terminal ,and do the same.I installed older versions and have the same problem.I think it's a bug that more happens to the same job and dropboxhttp://ubuntuone.com/0dum2IUqqvdgWSS0Hm5ZRx.Opera its my favorite browser.I hope to be resolved somehow.

Icon flashes and thickens writing.And nothing appears on the desktop.I think to not get the video card configuration,of the Nvidia x Server Settings.Here's what it looks like to mehttp://ubuntuone.com/2WToJkzZp5YZyzMvYLYR1Q

Reason I asked was. For me Chromium has been doing funny things, including what you describe.

Try renaming your .opera folder to .opera-old
Then try opera again

.opera is a hidden folder accessed via Ctrl+H
