TCE Talk / Re: Compat Wireless for tc-5.x

« Last post by Fantasma on Today at 10:01:19 AM »

why would you use compat-drivers-3.8.1 on a 3.8.13 kernel rather than, say backports-3.12.1

I tried different backports and compat-drivers versions, from newer to older with same results, that was the last i tried (that's why the capture) but i will try again following your directions 
Thanks for your patience and kindly help

welcome a compat-wireless extension like with previous versions, if you'd like to contribute one

Sure i'd like to contribute with it, if i can finally make it work (since this is the first time that i'm
messing with system and stuff) but i'll do my best.

Allwinner A10 / Re: Problems with using import and debian apps

« Last post by MapHtH on Today at 09:58:48 AM »

Hmmm...

While surfing the net, I found something interesting regarding the Cubieboard: LINK

It seems that the problem may be in boot.scr, it seems that the settings for the screen resolution from uEnv.txt aren't used if you are using the core without any GUI.

I'm only a newbie, but I'll see how I can deal with this... Any suggestions are welcome.

Now, how to convert boot.scr to something readable...

Thanks a lot for this great ARM port!! It works flawlessly. Next weekend I will maybe compile some extensions: fluxbox, wmctrl, volumeicon. xpdf, roxfiler, midori, (and maybe mplayer but I'm not sure if I will be able to achieve that with hardware acceleration) and commit them.

They are always enabled as of 3.7: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=939da1084458246d2e29dd921c2012c177000e96

TCB Q&A Forum / extended attribute support

« Last post by lverns on Today at 06:28:21 AM »

I just have a quick question. (I think.)

Is the 32bit kernel used in 5.x built with support for extended attributes on the ext* filesystems?

I took a look at http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/x86/release/src/kernel/config-3.8.10-tinycore
but I really can't tell. I'm having trouble setting custom attributes (setfattr: file.txt: Operation not supported) and I want to make sure it isn't the kernel before I go any farther.

Thanks,
lverns

I posted in that thread about that issue, which I have not seen when loading e17.

I will adjust the dep lists.

I have not seen that error.  The startup script for dbus has that mkdir command in it:

Any chance to get wireless-3.8.13-tinycore.tcz already patched?

Sorry, the original modules are shipped pristine to avoid regressions. But we'll welcome a compat-wireless extension like with previous versions, if you'd like to contribute one. I assume other aircrackers will then be happy too

General TC Talk / Re: Announcing tinyx - our X server fork

« Last post by curaga on Today at 05:58:09 AM »

Well there's two places responsible if you read the Solaris bug. Xvesa is only sending a keypress event (like the earlier Solaris X server it seems), not keypress + keyrelease, which then confuses fluxbox as fluxbox is doing its own tracking in a weird way.

The protocol specifies a separate field for modifiers, like "is control pressed", and there's a numlock entry in there too. So why fluxbox is tracking numlock state by the keypresses is weird, but it's also weird why the WM cares about numlock at all.

Bootlocal.sh is backgrounded, so please put the modprobe (without sleep) into bootsync.sh.
