    Excellent. Thanks. I then got it up and running by typing 'opera' at
	the command line. Following a two-liner disclaimer "Session
	management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the
	authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based
	authentication failed" 'Activated running instance of Opera'
	appeared (I already had a copy open and minimized)

	T'would be elegant, I suppose, if I could address this without
	getting an intellectual hernia... and how might I go about
adding
	'Opera' to my Gnome window (Program, icon, etc)
