Music Videos-and-other things?

[Janina Sajka]

You can just use Lynx as a file browser, but make sure that you've
enabled at least the -show-cursor switch, and possibly "links and form
fields are numbered," both available in the lynx configuration screen.

If you don't want to see all the permissions, dates, etc., associated
with files, you can configure lynx to not display that as well, but you
will not configure that via the lynx configuration menus. Rather, if
you're going to change this, you'll have to edit a lynx.cfg file.

As for your audio playing too fast--let me cut to the chase. Did you
install ALSA? You really should and there are rpms you can use on the
Speakup Modified pages.
