Tiny Core 14.0 Alpha 1 Testing

Hi GNUser
These are the extensions that were corrected:
x86
cpufreqd.tcz
fakeroot.tcz
gfortran.tcz
gnome-themes-standard.tcz
openldap.tcz
x86_64
gfortran.tcz
gnumeric.tcz
libfm-dev.tcz
libfm-extra-dev.tcz
openldap.tcz
GNUser:
Hi, Rich. Yes, I can confirm that loading gnumeric.tcz now causes no errors when loading downstream extensions.
Hi, curaga. I can confirm that v5 of the kernel patch (available at https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20221230200747.19040-1-nbd@nbd.name/ and also attached) works as advertised.
I applied the patch to the TCL14 kernel source. Then I compiled the mac80211.ko module and repackaged wireless-6.1.2-tinycore64.tcz with it. Router is working perfectly now, creating the usual blazing-fast 802.11ac AP, crash-free.
curaga:
It takes some time to do a full kernel build, so generally we don't do a respin unless there's some serious bug. IMHO this is not big enough, and you're likely the only one using TC as a router with that wifi stick - but good to hear you have it working with a custom extension.
BTW it looks like Felix posted some mt76 fixes a week ago, if you hit other crashes they may be needed.
GNUser:
Hi, curaga. Thanks for the tip regarding the mt76 fixes.
I just want to point out that only the one module in wireless-KERNEL (mac80211.gz) had to be swapped because that's all that the patch changes. I'm still using the kernel image (vmlinuz64) and modules initrd (modules64.gz) that you guys released as alpha version. I mention this here in the off chance that it is helpful to anyone.

thanks for that clarification
