[Bookmarks] No “Date added” column/ “Sort by Date Added”: it can be toggled from title row context menu (VB-53043)
always wanted that to find my most recently added Bookmark(s) in the manager, thanks!
[Speed Dial] No immediate feedback after a link is clicked (VB-58111)
I don't think this will ever be resolved, when the background color of the theme is being shown before showing the contents of the webpage like today's (and previous) build(s) people will say it's not that nice, or that it blinds them -curiosity question: could it be showing the background color of the Start Page or the wallpaper instead?, or it has performance issues?-, and when it doesn't show the background at all people will say why there is an annoying delay...

I'm unable to install using the win7 32bit installer
https://downloads.vivaldi.com/snapshot/Vivaldi.2.9.1719.3.exevivaldi_installer.log:
[1106/152304.709:ERROR:lzma_util.cc(265)] Error returned by WriteFile: Risorse di sistema insufficienti per completare il servizio richiesto. (0x5AA)
[1106/152304.756:ERROR:lzma_util.cc(118)] Unable to uncompress archive: c:\ut\temp\CR_BC53C.tmp\VIVALDI.PACKED.7Z: Operazione completata. (0x0)insufficient resources? I don't think so.
md5 is f36f5a24bf2f15fd0aaa3f3e944ab1e8 *Vivaldi.2.9.1719.3.exe -
Thanks for the fast delivery of the security fixes!

@ian-coog: How is your disk space?
-
@npro A horrible inefficient solution is pre-load every speed dial when vivaldi starts - that way when a user clicks, it loads "immediately".
-
@ruario 194 GigaBytes free, not an issue. %temp% dir is empty, I also tried disabling Kaspersky AV in case it's stepping into things. Redownloaded the installer, same md5 so it's not broken during download.

@lonm: Noooo… Booooo…

- [Settings] Gesture mapping column can collapse (VB-8008)
I think that was the first bug I ever reported, maybe three years ago.
-
@ian-coog: I can't install the update through "search for updates". There is an endless loading.
Windows 7 x32
Vivaldi 2.9.1705.30 -
@temkem ok thanks, so there IS definately something wrong on the 32bit installers, both complete and via delta updating. I'm also on .30
-
I also got the "unable to decompress archive" error on update. Tried again, it worked... Seems fine now. Also 32-bit Vivaldi on 64-bit Windows 10.
Forgot to save the installer log
-
VIVALDI.PACKED.7Z created in %temp% is ok for 7zip, it also unpacks to a 207mb vivaldi.7z which also decompresses ok as Vivaldi-bin\ directory. No idea what's wrong.
EDIT: It was Kaspersky AV interfering, I've uninstalled KAV, rebooted now the same installer worked and I'm running Vivaldi 2.9.1719.3 / Chrome 78.0.3904.94
I'll update my report VB-59806. I have to tell our sysadmin that I want to get back using AVAST at my workstation instead of KAV because after all it was less of a burden.
-
@ruario it's KAV interfering, probably other people are having the same problem for the same reason. For the record, KAV afflicts also Chrome installer giving the same error.

[Crash] Enabling #enable-force-dark flag crashes: mess with flags at your own risk (VB-59151)
I've set it to enabled, this time Vivaldi seems able to start but every tab just have a dead bird.
I had to edit manually the "Local State" file changing the dark@1 to dark@0 to restart Vivaldi correctly. -
[Speed Dial] No immediate feedback after a link is clicked (VB-58111)
this is better, at least the SD gets cleared, the address field gets filled with the address of the site, still a bit of delay while "estabilishing the connection" and "waiting for site" but way better than before.

[Regression] Tab thumbnail doesn’t get updated until you visit/open/close another tab (VB-59669)
Works for me, I tried reloading one thumbnail and immediately refreshed.
