“A quick perusal of a web search turned up information
about this error but not anything that applied to my situation.
Granted I only looked at three of the returned searches because I
had an inspiration. I suddenly suspected that Opera uses hard coded
paths in some of its files. I opened an xterm and ran grep -r
“/home/oldusername” .opera which revealed my suspicions
were correct. The files that grep showed with hard coded paths are
global.dat, opera6.adr, opera6.ini and
pluginpath.ini.”
