Which is why I wrote this comment the way I did:

I've done that too. You look at an option and think "nah, I don't need that", not
realizing there's something else in the dependency chain you do need.

--- Code: ---tce-load -wi Xorg-7.7 flwm_topside aterm wbar
tce-load -wi Xvesa
Xvesa -listmodes
--- End code ---
...

Remove  Xorg-7.7  from your  /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst  file.
You don't need it because you're running Xvesa.

You are quite welcome. Glad it worked out for you.

    [Edit]: Xorg-7.7 in reply #18 was an error. It has been corrected.  Rich

Thanks! That saved some memory.

Another thing, if anyone wonders, I started with the linux kernel 5.10.232 which was at the time the latest v5.x kernel because I thought maybe the latest v6.x kernel would be too big to boot due to the 64 MB RAM limit. I'm now running the 6.12.10 kernel with a modified 15.x core.gz and it boots nicely into the desktop.
