I'd like to support lynx. I have added this page to the help wiki to gather our collective wisdom: https://help.launchpad.net/API/EndUserHints

However, I cannot duplicate the problem that arand describes. It works on Lucid for me just fine.

(Moreover, fwiw, elinks did not work for me, but perhaps if you describe what you did on the EndUserHints page I, and others, could follow your steps.)

I have tried to dupe. This is what I saw, ignoring the various Cookie questions that lynx asks me.

- "OpenID transaction in progress" "Continue" -> I pressed the right arrow.
- "Launchpad Login Service" -> I typed in my email address and password, and then tabbed to the "(Submit)" and pressed Return.
- "Authenticate to https://edge.launchpad.net/" "Launchpad Login Service" "Logged in as Gary Poster" ... -> I again tabbed to "(Submit)" (next to "Yes, sign me in") and pressed Return
- "Authorize application to access Launchpad on your behalf" ... "The application identified as launchpad-branch-lander wants to access Launchpad on your behalf. What level of access do you want to grant?" ... -> I tabbed to "Change Anything" and pressed Return.
- "Almost finished ..." -> I pressed q y Return to quit Lynx, confirm, and have my launchpadlib application proceed.

I have not touched my lynx.cfg from a vanilla Lucid install, and only added the local.cfg with the one value I described earlier. Is yours a fresh Lucid install or an upgrade? If an upgrade, perhaps we should compare our lynx.cfg.
