How do I start Opera7???

I installed opera with pacman from contrasutra. And how can I start it if it isnt the command "opera"?
Or what is really my problem?

The path to the opera bin is /opt/opera/bin/opera.  There is no link to it in /usr/bin.  Note if you are using the operabeta package the path is /opt/operabeta/bin/opera

In the new package, I added a script to /etc/profile.d that adds /opt/opera/bin to your PATH, so you can type "opera". You have to restart/re-login for this to take effect though.

restart? all you have to do is log out then back in to reset your environment variables.
