Hi ferran
... I suggest you reboot without any alsa or pulseaudio extensions set "onboot" or "ondemand", ...
1. Click on the  Apps  icon.
2. Click  Apps->Maintenance->OnBoot Maintenance.
3. In the  On Boot Items  panel, click the item you wish to remove from your  onboot.lst  file.
4. Click the  Delete Item from List  button.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 as required.
6. Click  Apps->Maintenance->OnDemand Maintenance.
7. Remove all items.
8. Exit the  Apps  program.
9. Reboot your machine.

You can also use the  Apps->Maintenance->OnBoot Maintenance  page to add items back to your  onboot.lst  file.

I am proposing something as a test, not for normal operation - if you do not wish to disrupt your settings, you can boot with the boot codes "base" and "norestore", which will have the effect of preventing any extensions being loaded and will prevent your backup being restored.

If you follow the above, you will boot to a console prompt and will need a simple desktop, which can be done like this:
Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -i Xorg-7.7 flwm aterm wbar
$ startx

Once the gui has started, you can open a terminal window and run the commands already mentioned.

First I need to know where I can find my "boot codes"

I don't know which boot loader you are using.

Some boot loaders, for example grub, will allow you to edit your boot config temporarily from the boot menu to add/delete boot codes.

For other boot loaders, you will need to consult their documentation online to find what their config file is called and where it is located in order to edit it.

Ey juanito, you don't worry about it. Finally i re-installed Tiny Core 11.0 from scratch.

You want to know a funny thing?. So, now works fine pavucontrol again!  ;D

I think that the system was corrupt since I made the great crash.

If you wants, lets mark this theme as solved.

Code: [Select]
grep -l alsa.tcz /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/*.dep | cut -d/ -f6Thats a lowercase  L  after  grep.
SNIP

thanks for the command now the OP is now solved I can reveal I made a small script to help me,
hope it helps others. I am not a real coder

Code: [Select]
#!/bin/sh
read -t 10 -p "input TCE without dot tcz please
" INPUT
grep -l $INPUT.tcz /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/*.dep | cut -d/ -f6

made it an executable script in my ~/.local/bin named searchtce

ref
https://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide/Getting_User_Input_Via_Keyboard
-t 10 = timeouts if I can not type it in 10 seconds.

eg
Code: [Select]
searchtce
input TCE without dot tcz please
alsa
alsa-dev.tcz.dep
alsa-plugins.tcz.dep
gimp2.tcz.dep
pulseaudio.tcz.dep
