Tiny Core 14.0 Alpha 1 Testing

<< < (2/22) > >>

GNUser:
The 8 extensions impacted by problem #2 seemed too simple to be causing problems, so on a whim I removed the extension being loaded before them, namely gnumeric.tcz, from my onboot.lst file. Lo and behold, problem #2 went away.

I'm not sure what it is about gnumeric.tcz that's causing the "Permission denied" error for the handful of extensions that are loaded after it. I inspected the contents of gnumeric.tcz (including its tce.installed script) and nothing seems amiss. Very strange. I will just do without gnumeric for now.

curaga:
gnumeric.tcz's permissions for the tce.installed dir may be wrong, missing the group write permission?

Rich:
Hi curaga
That happened when I removed the  .la  files from the extensions.

It turns out that the  unsquasfs (V4.2)  command on our server removed the
group write permission. The Tinycore  unsquasfs (V4.3)  command does not
do that.

There are 424 x86 and 458 x86_64 extensions affected. I will fix them tonight.
Attached are the lists of affected extensions.

GNUser:
Thanks, Rich. Mystery solved!

GNUser:
On this alpha (64-bit) I can no longer create a 5 GHz 802.11ac hotspot on my router using hostapd.

I have confirmed that regulatory domain is set correctly. Whether I use the hostapd from the repo or one compiled for this version, result is the same: wireless clients can authenticate but have no internet connectivity, router becomes completely unresponsive after about 1 minute.

I will try creating a 5 GHz 802.11n hotspot: If that works, points to a problem with 802.11ac support; if that doesn't work, points to a problem with 5 GHz support.

curaga: Between TCL13.1 and TCL14-alpha1 is there any relevant change in kernel configuration options? All the hardware is the same on my end.
