Norwegian software vendor Opera Software ASA on Tuesday released the beta version of its Opera Web browser for Linux.
The announcement comes several weeks after Opera announced the release of the beta of Opera 8 for Windows. Both versions of the popular alternative Web browser come with usability improvements such as fit to window width, fit to paper width, and an improved RSS (Really Simple Syndication) client. The browser also boasts a new, easier-to-use user interface.

Opera's improvements have not just been on the surface.

"A browser is much more than what meets the eye, and to maximize speed, security and page handling, Opera's core and supporting code has undergone dramatic improvements based on the strict efficiency requirements brought in from the mobile phone market where Opera is a leading player," Christen Krogh, vice president of engineering at Opera, said in a statement.

Opera plans to make its newest browser generally available in 2005, but it has not revealed the name for its newest version.
