in my experience, gmail degrades really well with browsers. I was pleasantly surprised that it works with both links and lynx (of course, links presented a much better layout). My working copy of links: [12:48 AM]wwong ~ $ emerge -pv links These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild U ] www-client/links-2.1_pre19 [2.1_pre18] +X -directfb -fbcon +gpm -javascript +jpeg -livecd +png +ssl +svga +tiff +unicode 3,754 kB Hum, I might have figured out what your problem is. I just tried to access YahooGroups with my account, and like you, after loggin in, it tells me that the refresh doesn't work, and bumps me to the front page. But if I hit ^R to reload the front page, it now shows me as logged in. I think the problem is that the websites are sending refresh command that links doesn't understand. And when you manually try to click the link given, it assumes it was the same page (same address, you visited just 10 seconds ago), so loads it from cache.
