Tiny Core 5.0 Alpha 3 Testing

Solved the keyboard and synaptics configurations;
I just created (as root) the floder /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and then added here two files like 11-myKeyboard.conf and 51-mySynaptics.conf
then I use backup (.filetool.lst) to permanently save them for the next reboot.
[ 16.024] (==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Wed Jul 17 00:10:18 2013
[ 16.027] (==) Using config directory: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d"
[ 16.027] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
the files are like these:
# My keyboard is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-mykeyboard.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "myKeyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbModel" "inspiron"
Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
#Option "XkbVariant" "latin9"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
# My touchpad is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/51-mySynaptics.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "mySynaptics"
Driver "synaptics"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "2"
Option "TapButton3" "3"
Option "VertEdgeScroll" "on"
Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "on"
Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "on"
Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "on"
Option "CircularScrolling" "on"
Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
EndSection
The priorities for X configurations are like /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if exist) "overides" /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*.conf files, which they will "overide" /usr/[local]/share/X11/xorg.conf;d/*.conf

If you have a problem, as I have one, with GPU/CPU fans (for a DELL BIOS A09), which start but forget to stop forever after that;
my trick is to set the GPU to low performance (temporary, but I saw no degradation for my work in tinycore), go to standby and then just wakeup. And the fans stop; My finger is up for DELL (the midle one).
It would be better is a xf8-video-ati is compiled with low profile by default. If not, then:
sudo su
echo low > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile
echo mem > /sys/power/state

--- End quote ---
The dep is OK (recall the issue of the apps gui and alpha testing):
http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/x86/tcz/wireless_tools.tcz.dep
--- Quote ---Is there a requirement I'm not aware of why wireless-3.8.10-tinycore.tcz is included in wireless-tools.tcz.dep list, considering the corresponding firmware files are not included.
--- End quote ---
It's included because probably the majority of wifi hardware uses the b43 module, which is in wireless-KERNEL as are several support modules - lib80211_crypt_wep, lib80211_crypt_tkip, lib80211_crypt_ccmp, lib80211, cfg80211, mac80211, etc

module r8187se "RealTek RTL8187SE Wireless LAN NIC driver" : drivers/staging/rtl8187se
--- End quote ---
Well, I just did a search on cateee.net and seems that to me, not sure what exactly is not clear beyond a doubt.
Device is reported here
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,12910.msg87818.html#msg87818
Supported only in 2.x repo with an out-of-tree modded driver based on driver provided by manufacturer.

Both 2d and 3d require the kernel module. The kernel module requires firmware.
All radeon 3d requires LLVM. Radeon 2d works without llvm.
--- End quote ---
technically you can do radeon 3d acceleration without llvm. there is a separate "sb" backend for radeons that doesn't require llvm. although it might be a temporary solution, it works pretty well ( i use it all the time on rs780 card ) , and is already available in mesa's main branch.
