Hi, bobowsh.

Use a different terminal, aterm doesn't support UTF-8

Which port are you using ?

Try rxvt, vte, lxterminal, genome-terminal ... etc.

You'll also need True Type Fonts such as unifont, notosans ... etc.

Hi polikuo

... Try rxvt, vte, lxterminal, genome-terminal ... etc. ...

Did you mean  gnome-terminal ?

[polikuo]

Ha~, ha~
Nice catch
Yes, I mean gnome-terminal
This isn't molecular biology.

Hi polikuo

... This isn't molecular biology.

True, but not everyone who reads that post in the future
may be aware of gnome.

I've been on a few wild goose chases because someone
looking for help misspelled an item I was not familiar with.

True, but not everyone who reads that post in the future
may be aware of gnome.

A future in which a person would be aware of TCL (at least enough to be reading this thread) and unaware of gnome? I love it. Sounds like my kind of future

Hi GNUser

... a person would be aware of TCL (at least enough to be reading this thread) and unaware of gnome? ...

Then I guess you've never seen any posts resembling this:

I'm trying to install Tinycore but I'm having some problems. I'm coming from
Windows and want to turn an old machine into a jukebox.

Or:

Noobie here...........first post. Trying to become more comfortable using Linux, but still at a rudimentary level of understanding.

Hi Rich. I guess some people take a lot less time to see the light than I did. I wish I were like the newbies in these posts! Finding TCL sooner in my FOSS journey would have saved me a lot of time and aggravation.

Thank you for best reply

Another question，how to increase Screen resolution， the bootcode only max to 1280*1024

Hi bobowsh
Please use  Code Tags  when posting commands and responses seen in a terminal. To use  Code Tags  click on the  #  icon
above the reply box and paste your text between the  Code Tags  as shown in this example:

[code][   36.176529] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supply 'AVDD': -517
[   36.176536] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supplies: -517
[   36.191753] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supply 'AVDD': -517[/code]

It will appear like this in your post:

Code: [Select]

[   36.176529] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supply 'AVDD': -517
[   36.176536] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supplies: -517
[   36.191753] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supply 'AVDD': -517
Code Tags  serve as visual markers between what you are trying to say and the information you are posting. They also preserve
spacing so column aligned data displays properly. Code tags also automatically add horizontal and or vertical scrollbars
to accommodate long lines and listings.

Hi bobowsh
You can try adding the boot code:

Code: [Select]

vga=askand see if a list of video modes is displayed when you boot.

Or you can try one of the codes under "Linux video mode numbers"
found here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VESA_BIOS_Extensions#Linux_video_mode_numbers

You can install graphics-KERNEL.tcz and use a different X server.

Code: [Select]

tce-load -wi graphics-KERNEL Xorg-7.7
Sometimes you'll need drivers for your graphic card

Code: [Select]

tce-load -wi firmware-radeon
Adjust the commands above to suit your needs.
