go check the file /var/lib/dpkg/status
(if using nano) type
nano /var/lib/dpkg/status

then search for opera-mobile (ctrl + w)
and paste here the part of the opera-mobile block
it should start like
and before the description part

(I hope I made myself clear)

Oops I didn't follow the whole thread, it seems like you got Opera removed right?

@Mohammed,

I see you've opened a new thread about this problem. Not sure if you managed to actually correctly and fully flash your N900, but that's the only thing you can do at the moment.

I mean really flashing the whole thing. If you do that properly and you still get those stale file handle errors it may be an indication that your EMMC is hosed. That's serious bad luck.

Re: [ HELP] package installation and removal gives error
 

i fully flashed my N900 along with emmc. the problem is not there :D
