Re: a question about running lynx on a system with a ppp connection..

[Trevor Astrope <astrope@tabbweb.com>]

Hi Geremy,

I had this problem in the past. It is likely a difference in terminal
emulations between the dos box running your terminal program and the linux
box. Make sure they are both the same. I.E. vt100 at both ends or vt102
etc. 

Hope that helps.

Trevor
