Lynx running only in anonymous mode. Unable to save configuration...?

Question

Hello Arch Community!
I've been trying to familiarize myself with the Linux command prompt. As such, I have been using only commandline tools and utilities. (No windows manager installed here!) I chose Lynx as a web browser, and so far I like it. However, I cannot figure out how to convince Lynx to save my configuration. Some options are marked with a (!), meaning that those changes will be lost when the program closes. I've done some research, and it appears as though I am running Lynx as an "anonymous" user. After an hour of searching around, I turned up very little information. (As you can imagine, text based web browsers aren't exaxtly fashionable...) Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you all for your time,
LibertasAequitas
Edit: Also, if anyone would like to suggest an alternate text only browser; please, feel free!

Please try with Compiz instead of KWin.  I asked another user with a similar issue to do this and it helped them, because Compiz gave a better error message that helped them diagnose the issue.  And if Compiz works fine, it's a KWin bug

Ok, I weren't able to find a specific compiz log, so I started it via console the output was:
[14:03:43][blq@myhost ~]$ fusion-icon
* Detected Session: kde
* Searching for installed applications...
* NVIDIA on Xorg detected, exporting: __GL_YIELD=NOTHING
* Using the GTK Interface
* Starting Compiz
... executing: compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp --loose-binding --indirect-rendering
fuse: failed to access mountpoint compiz: No such file or directory
compiz (cube) - Warn: Failed to load slide: freedesktop
Somehow I weren't able to get any window-decorations to work. (Emerald)

I allready tried that. I only added what was absolutely necessary to get the monitors working  ....  same problem........
I've read the NVidia wiki several times and very carefully. I went through every single step.. there is nothing more available that could solve my problem.
Thankyou very much for the responses!
