When I install Opera and open it the first time an Opera launcher shows up in Unity. I then set it to be kept. However, after having used Opera a couple of times the launcher stops working, and when I open Opera from the Applications menu I either get no Opera launcher, or I get another icon for Opera Widget managemnt. It's like Unity "forgets" Opera and thinks the widget manager/installer is he Opera application. Since Opera works fine in Gnome this seems to be a Unity problem. Any idea how to resolve it? I'm using Opera 11.10 Beta on fully updated Natty Beta x64.

I had the same issue. After I installed the lo-menubar (see synaptic) i haven't seen this issue (to be sure I will need to test longer). I'm wondering if you have the same experience.
You can get Intellij to generate the icon in /usr/share/applications for you to copy to your launcher:
- Open a terminal, in idea/bin folder
- Start IntelliJ with
./idea.sh - Tools -> Generate Desktop Entry
- Close IntelliJ
- In the terminal, start nautilus as admin (
gksudo nautilus) - Go to /usr/share/applications
- Drag the new icon for IntelliJ to your launcher

This has been fixed with the latest ubuntu 11.04 + updates and the latest opera release. Unstick opera from unity launcher, remove/purge opera, download it and install it again.
