I did some expirimenting, and it has nothing to do with local vs remote. It is strictly a termcap thing. Try setting your TERM environment variable to something else (rxvt, xterm, vt100, etc) and then running lynx. [prompt]$ export TERM=vt100 # for bash, sh, etc.. or [prompt]$ setenv TERM vt100 # for csh, tcsh, etc... -Mitch

LINUX in Sony PlayStation 2? Is this to be believed? Message 8194571 "One of the most interesting aspects of the PlayStation 2's tech specs is the news that rather than use its own custom OS, as with PlayStation I, or license Microsoft's WinCE as with Sega's Dreamcast, Sony have instead licensed Linux. For those not in the know, Linux is a freeware clone of Unix. First created as a DIY project by a Finnish college student, it has subsequently grown into one of today's most respected and robust OS's thanks to an unprecedented effort by hackers the world over. "
