Who is using dCore and why?

Those are the directories, look inside them for the files and dates. :-)

Hi,
Now I am using ub-dCore (trusty) in all my Pc's and laptops because the facilities and clarity of the sce's extensions, and all the software that can be found in Ubuntu.
Every time, with the new functions introduced in dCore, is more and more easier to maintain and up to date the extensions.

My congratulations to the creators of these versions, where I think it will be the future of (Tiny-d)Core.

Thank you!  8)

I'm using dCore Jessie as OS of a fanless thin client via PXE boot .   The point was to get a absolute silent PC   ;) 

In tinycore some binaries are compiled with optimized flags for Pentium CPUs. But I have a Cyrix CPU.
That causes "illegal instruction" errors when I ran firefox etc.
So I swiched to the debian way. 
X, Browser and Shells are working  perfect now.

Great work, guys!

i use it on an ancient laptop with pata-ssd, so that i don't wear it down too fast. plus, it's fairly lightweight.

other options are thin client environments and general purpose liveusb's.

dicorer:
only live usb,specialized ops :)
having last version binaries ready + some dependencies is a huge time saver, the idea to use ubuntu repo is good, but we all know those debs are full of useless stuffs and you can't never find an application with right dependencies, or depends are too many (or too less...  ::)
relying fully on those debs+deps, at the end there isn't much added value... +or- as lubuntu  ;D
so I made up my own strategy.
Basically, cutting away some of those deps, plus keeping track myself of already installed debs, plus further clean the resulting sce, I'm reducing dimensions half, and more.
luckily sce structure is very smart, it keeps inside the debs list used, so, at next ubuntu release it will be much simpler: just provide the same list to sce-import ;)
