Disable SpeedDial in Opera 9.20

Hello,
Is there a way to revert to simple normal homepage rather than this stupidity?
I did use about:config option and changed value from 1 to 3, but I still do not get the old style menu / homepage.
Any ideas?
Mrk

 

Why not just reinstall the version you are useing and it will just put it back to the default settings and leave all of your bookmarks and settings alone. I have done it several times.

 

For one thing, you could simply click on the south east corner of any new tab, which simply leaves speed dial inactive from then on.

This version solves a couple of security issues, too. So don't get discouraged by a new feature simply because it's of no use to you

Cheers

 

Hello,
I simply hate dumb-ass features. What's wrong with leaving the normal homepage to people?
Mrk

 

I just tried:
1/ activated javascript
2/ typed "opera:config" in the address bar
3/ clicked "userprefs"
4/ went down "to speed dial state" and set it to "3"
5/ went down to "save" and clicked it
6/ exited Opera and restarted.

It worked pretty well, even the mention "show speed dial" has now disappeared.

Build 8771 on WinXPSP2 and Win2KSP4

Cheers

Edit: actually, on W2KSP4 it just works without even restarting Opera.

 

What's different now
The only difference is that a blank tab isn't blank, but you can still use it as nothing was there.
I for one like it, it doesn't diminish any capabilities, only enhances some functionality.

Seing dylanfan's post, i think you just need to restart Opera, and your'e good to go. But really, why do you want to do that, given what i say above?
