apps fail in startx x app browser but load from cli?
« on: January 28, 2016, 01:59:46 PM »
I initially did a microcore install and installed extensions with tce command. now im using x more i want to install apps when im in there rather than have to go to the command all the time. but whenever i try they always fail in there. i can access the server but when i click go it immediately says failed.

also how do i get the bottom bar showing installed apps like how it shows in a standard tinycore install. not a big deal but it is convenient.

What did you use to install (Tiny) Core and what is the media you boot from (CD, HDD, USB Stick)?
Download a copy and keep it handy: Core book ;)

Can you only install via command line (tce-load -i ...) or can you also download (tce-load -w ...).
Did you setup a internet connection?
