oss.tcz missing dep ?
« on: August 18, 2019, 02:57:30 AM »
coreplus , TC10.0
In  Apps size tab of  oss.tcz  , this error message is flashed : 

** oss-modules-4.19.10-tinycore.tcz Error , not found. ** .

Is it pointing to Meta ext *original.modules.xxx.xxx.xxx.tcz* ? Meta ext is too big !  Or is it already a known error ? TC10.0

In  Apps size tab of  oss.tcz  , this error message is flashed :  ** oss-modules-4.19.10-tinycore.tcz Error , not found. ** . Is it pointing to Meta ext *original.modules.xxx.xxx.xxx.tcz* ? Meta ext is too big !  Or is it already a known error ?

IMHO, OSS sound drivers dream si over!; I wish was not, but nobody wants to maintain it. Linux kernel is advancing so FAST, so faster changes and [by purpose introduced by kernel developers] incompatibilities. Plus main trend in pre-compiled Firefox to use only ALSA, etc.

The oss modules have not been built for x86, whereas they have been built for x86_64.

See here: http://www.tinycorelinux.net/10.x/x86_64/tcz/src/oss

..if you like to build them for x86.

Hi nick65go , Rich and Juanito thanks. All my PCs are pure intel-based hardware, so I hardly face any drivers issues , my  ALSA is ok .
 .. My friend was fade-up with many viruses and other issues on his XP mails. So I suggested TC on his old  h/w.  I loaded his PC with older ver of  TC now with OSS . I had to train him a bit.  And he is more than happy for so fast and quick loading of TC without bloat.  He only uses mail and old music !

... By the way, I was not aware of this 32 to 64 upgrade of OSS  in latest TCs.
 Thanks ! :)
