Since opera isn't really telling us much about what's going wrong, it might help to use strace to see which files it's looking for. I've attached a strace binary that works on the Kobo. It can be run like this:
Code:
./strace /usr/bin/operamobile
It should output a bunch of info on which files opera is trying to open. If you post that output, maybe I or someone else can point you in the right direction.
