Tiny Core v11.0

Libgit2 on 64-bit depends on SSL 1.0 and needs a refresh.

Also, a couple apps I use (audacious, flpicsee) apparently have not been migrated to the 11.0 repo. I retained the 10.1 versions when I updated and they appear to work fine in 11.0.

tc-10.x audacious depends on libavdevice3 and gnome-icon-theme, which are not in the 11.x repo - updated for the 11.x repo.

flpicsee depends on fltk-1.10 - an extension recompiled against fltk-1.3 would be gratefully received

It should be OK now

Hi,
When this will be available for other architectures?
Thanks

[Juanito]

Which other architectures are you speaking of?

[neonix]

I think those:
http://tinycorelinux.net/11.x/armv6/test_releases/RPi/
http://tinycorelinux.net/11.x/armv7/test_releases/RPi/
http://tinycorelinux.net/11.x/armv7l/test_releases/RPi/

Thank you for the update. Loving it so far.

Thank you for this new release.

Here my observation using 11.0 for the first time.
- With 10.1 and before I can start a TCL VM with just 64MB memory assigned.
(depending on the extension I do need to increase memory, but often 128MB is sufficient for my needs)
- With 11.0 I observe the following:

• with 96MB: Kernel panic - not syncing: System is deadlocked on memory.
• with 128MB: a back screen (no GUI)
• with 160MB: no issues

I understand new features require more resources. Just checking if this is expected.


I'm also missing ipv6-5.4.3-tinycore.tcz for IPv6 support.

Hi rhermsen

... I'm also missing ipv6-5.4.3-tinycore.tcz for IPv6 support.

It was merged with  netfilter  and is now called:
ipv6-netfilter-5.4.3-tinycore.tcz
If you're running 64 bit it's
ipv6-netfilter-5.4.3-tinycore64.tcz

Such a RAM need increase is unexpected, but the upstream kernel doesn't care that much about such low RAM amounts, so it's possible. There is no external increase - the initrd only grew about the usual amount - so it's very likely a kernel behavior change.

[rhermsen]

Thank you both for the replies.

@Rich see indeed both extensions (running the 32bit version of TCL).

[curaga]

If you'd like to do a bisect and report the RAM regression to the kernel bugzilla, please do. I think it's quite possible nobody has noticed it yet.

edit: And the 64-bit kernel is available on the 32-bit edition, for running with large RAM machines, etc.
