Please forgive my ignorance, but how does one go about applying these fixes?  Is there a new core.gz I can download?

Hi TomyTurbos
Is this what you are looking for:

Thanks for answering.

The file appears to be identical to the original. (same date and byte count)

Hi TomyTurbos
Everything else mention in this thread refers to extensions which can be updated using the  Apps  utility.

Thanks again.
Rather than get into an extensive trouble-shoot in this thread, I'll just say that this has to do with the X11 error, which was reported as fixed.  I am getting that error and suspect that other problems are related.

So, I just need to know how to apply the fixes, particularly the one regarding X11 locale. 

I apologize for not being a Linux/TC wizard, but it appears to be a typo in the script.  But I don't know which script or where to find it, let alone what the proper pathname is.  Nor do I know where to get the current dev copy of core.gz, which should quickly and easily resolve that issue.

Hi TomyTurbos
Try running these commands:

Code: [Select]

tce-audit builddb
tce-audit updatedeps
tce-audit fetchmissing
tce-updateThen reboot.

just my 2cents:
kernel 4.19.10-tinycore64 (vmlinuz64), cant boot anymore as XEN domU, i think i need to recompile the kernel, 9.x works without recompile.

and btw:
TC9.x x64-->

Code: [Select]

file -s vmlinuz64
vmlinuz64: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 4.14.10-tinycore64 (tc@box) #2018 SMP Mon Jan 1 16:07:42 UTC 20, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x4, Normal VGATC10.x x64-->

Code: [Select]

file -s ../10x/vmlinuz64
../10x/vmlinuz64: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 4.19.10-tinycore64 (tc@box) #1999 SMP Tue Dec 18 15:18:54 UTC 2, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x4, Normal VGA
look at the date of 10.x kernel 1999 ...

    [EDIT]: Added code tags.  Rich

tce-audit builddb
tce-audit updatedeps
tce-audit fetchmissing
tce-updateThen reboot.

Done (as SU, BTW!  Didn't work otherwise)
Error message gone.

Thanks again, Rich.

Hi TomyTurbos
Glad to here that solved your problem. I didn't think you needed to be  root  to perform those operations.

No reboot required (other than at the end), just sudo su.

And for the suggestion box:  Make those commands into a script and include it as part of the Core.
It seems like a basic maintenance thing that is probably over most people's heads. (It was in my case!)
Things like this would make TCL a little more user-friendly and also cut down on you Brainiacs having to deal with the same stuff over and over. 

Thanks once more.

The new kernel only added options, so I'm not sure why it would have less functionality. I don't use Xen though.

I have to agree with Rich, because "sudo su' nor "sudo are required in a normal tinycore fugal installation

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ tce-audit builddb
Building Extension Database from /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional
...........................................................
tc@box:~$ tce-audit updatedeps
Updating .dep files from /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional
...

not even "tce-update" requires sudo

Additionally, without a reboot how can the updated extension be loop mounted and loaded??  it's not possible.

After download filesystems-4.19.10-tinycore64.tcz and  brtfs-progs.tcz in Tiny Core v 10.0 x86_64, I was typing in terminal "sudo modprobe btrfs" .
I got in terminal:  "modprobe: can't load module btrfs (kernel.tclocal/fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko.gz): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter" . But in Tiny Core v 9.x x86_64 there was no such problem.

What is wrong in Tiny Core v 10.0 x86_64 ? Thank you in advance for your help !

As per:

Code: [Select]

$ modinfo btrfs | grep depends
depends:        zstd_compress,zstd_decompress,raid6_pq,xor
zstd_compress, zstd_decompress and xor are in the base and raid6_pq is provided by the raid-dm-KERNEL extension

[ricky]

Download and install of raid-dm-4.19.10-tinycore64.tcz solved my problem.
Thank you so much Juanito .
