With my hardware, Xorg-7.7 tries to load drivers in the following order:
Code: [Select]
[    15.024] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
[    15.024] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 1
[    15.024] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 2
[    15.024] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 3

If I do not use the xf86-video-intel extension, then I see the following:

* Xorg-7.7 - uses vesa driver
* graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 + Xorg-7.7 - uses modesetting driver

From your results it looks like you are not using graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 + Xorg-7.7?

[  ]  TinyCorePure64-10.1.iso + Xorg-7.7.tcz + flwm.tcz + wbar.tcz + aterm.tcz
[OK]  CorePure64-10.1.iso + graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64.tcz + Xorg-7.7.tcz + xf86-video-ati.tcz + firmware-radeon.tcz + flwm.tcz + wbar.tcz + aterm.tcz

Question: Isn't VESA 32-bit !?

AMD A4-5300 APU with AMD Radeon HD 7480D graphics

TinyCorePure64-10.1.iso

The Xvesa tiny x server extension is 32-bit only - the Xorg vesa driver (xf86-video-vesa) can be both 32-bit and 64-bit.

What is the difference between modesetting and vesa?

Modesetting uses the kernel KMS driver, while vesa uses the vesa bios. Neither has any acceleration. Vesa is more universal, but more limited in the resolutions supported.

edit: Well, modesetting does support 2d-over-opengl acceleration if your card has good 3d support, and you have drivers installed.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

[OK]  CorePure64-10.1.iso + graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64.tcz + Xorg-7.7.tcz + xf86-video-ati.tcz + firmware-radeon.tcz + flwm.tcz + wbar.tcz + aterm.tcz

I've tried many times before and I'm tired,

Can I run batch downloads at once as a ready-made command?

Is this the following script list right?

easy to copy and paste with graphical interface menu.

how can I easily enter this list at the command line at once!?

Code: [Select]
tc@box:~$ tce-load -wi graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64.tcz Xorg-7.7.tcz xf86-video-ati.tcz firmware-radeon.tcz flwm.tcz wbar.tcz aterm.tcz

Hello xor
You tire too easily...

I think you'd be better off making a script to accomplish the task then exit to shell and execute your script to run all the commands

Create a shell script, call it "getXorg"
At the command prompt in you home directory enter:
Code: [Select]
echo "#!/bin/sh" > getXorg
Add your commands
Code: [Select]
echo "tce-load -wi graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm" >> getXorg
Make executable
Code: [Select]
sudo chmod +x getXorg
then exit to shell and enter ./getXorg   to run the script
Code: [Select]
./getXorg
Depending on what else you might want to accomplish you might just want to start X   
Code: [Select]
Xorgor
Code: [Select]
Xorg -nolisten tcp &or
Code: [Select]
StartX

:)

Yes, you can download many extensions on the same command line.

If you are already in the gui, do not load the graphics-KERNEL extension.

In the gui:
Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -wil Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm
Next, exit to the console prompt, then:
Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -wil graphics-KERNEL
$ startx

Note that while you are still experimenting, it would be much easier to install CorePure64 to a usb stick and boot from that.

Do not use TinyCorePure64-10.1.iso as the starting point.

the problem stems from 64-bit.
I had no such problems in the 32-bit version.

Where is the xorg.conf file?

Xorg-7.7 will usually work without an xorg.conf, but you can put xorg.conf snippets in /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Xorg-7.7-3d installed.
and I also need to enter setxkbmap tr command for keyboard settings
In this respect, the standard xorg.conf file needs to be created.
with which command can I create this. ???

and also to all xorg packages (especially 64-bit) as standard.
I would like you to add the xorg.conf file to tcz packages.
