If your version of lynx was built with PDCURSES (the lynx386 from
fdisk is), put the following in your environment:
PDCURSES_BIOS=TRUE

I am not sure whether this is a problem or not when lynx is built with
SLang.

If you are referring to the lynx386 version for DOS, you would need a
DOS based real audio player. You probably need the Win32 version of
lynx under Win9x for real audio to be practical.
