Oh man, that brings me back. Lynx was really important back when GPU support for Linux was less good.

Much time was spent navigating NVIDIA Website in Lynx trying different driver versions. Then the autogenerated Xorg.conf would always be wrong. Kids these days have it so easy. Get off my lawn.

(Seriously though, I like this strange new world where Linux is super easy to set up)
