Description
Up to version 9.64 of Opera, the Twitter widget worked perfectly. Now, I'm using final 10.0 (x86_64) and I cannot tweet in Greek. It accepts the latin characters, but no Greek characters. In fact, when I type in Greek, it displays garbled characters.

Problem still persists with version 10.10. Any update? Am I the only one experiencing this?

Hmm, just found a nice URL shortener that works fine with Opera 10.01 Linux, and has some brilliant features. Now am able to twitt from Opera :smile:

Opera crashed right away as soon as I clicked on the install button.

I noticed that if I type the Greek text inside a text editor and copy-paste it inside the tweet box, the characters appear fine. So, it seems to me that something's wrong with the input system in the new version of Opera in Linux.

Forgot to mention that the problem also occurs with the 32-bit version.
