I have Opera 9.x on my Suse 10.1 and the menu entry always remains intact after any upgrades. Where did you get the opera package?

I used the latest package from here ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/
but i cot not find any opera update where, only open source app? This is the one you have used ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.1/rpm/i586

Cot you please find the neweste Opera 9.01,real player & adobe- Macromedia flash player update for Suse 10.1, and would you please post the direct links or is that to much to ask for?
