My monitor has an auto button to auto set the size and phase. Originally you did not say you had a laptop.

Yes, I told. But doesn't matter. Issue is not created by the lack of a button.

How to upgrade from 4_1 (not working for me..) to 4_2?
Seems to be a headache with the amount of modification..
Startpoint is 4_1 Microcore and Xorg7_4 (and all others for looking like TCL).
When indicated; I will test.

Results would depend on how installed. Use CorePlus for easy way for frugal or pendrive.
If manual or 3rd party results in no tce directory and only core.gz then a basic microcore is to be expected.
From the announcement post:
--- Quote ---MicroCore is simply the kernel + core.gz This is the foundation for user created desktops.
TinyCore is simply the kernel + core.gz + Xvesa.tcz|Xorg.tcz + (user's choice of Window Manager) + (optionally wbar.tcz)

Obviously tcz extensions are located in the tce directory.

If your starting point is 4_1 Microcore and Xorg7_4 then not difficult at all.
Replace microcore.gz with core.gz and be sure to update the files likely in your backup and ondemand (if any).
Update extensions from the release candidate area as explained in the announcement.
From the announcement:
--- Quote ---Files likely in your backup that will need to be updated:
.setbackground
.profile
.xsession
Note: You must recreate all ondemand items. Use AppsAudit OnDemand Maintenance.
