You seem to still be missing an X server.  your choices are Xvesa, Xorg-vesa, Xfbdev, or Xorg (full blown).  Xvesa, Xorg-vesa, and Xfbdev are available from the Xserver dir inside the core_elements dir on the site, which you will need to wget. Xorg (full blown) is available as an extension that can be retrieved the same as any other extension.

-prepare an MC with two coreelements
-$ tce-load Xfce4base.tczl (al dependencies of xorg it integrated)
...

I haven't been following this thread closely, since I don't ever use xorg, so I might not be on the same page, but...

Whenever I load a gui on top of microcore, I load -three- corelements - Xlibs, Xprogs and Xvesa and then throw in a window manager (usually jwm).  Is the use of the core elements different with xorg?

[ Edit: Not trying to be redundant, Kingdomcome, you just beat me to it.  :) ]

No problem Lee.  I just realized that Xorg is include in the dep file for Xfce4base, so the lack of an X server is not the problem.  This may in fact be a bug in Xfce4, but Im still testing  ???

Ok finally xorg run!
   
The problem is  that is don't install VBox-OSE-addictions.tczl, i run tiny from vbox.

The new list of operation:
-microcore + core elements on usb
-run
-tce-load -w -i -r Xorg-7.4.tczl
-tce-load -w -i -r VBox-OSE-additions.tczl (attention, the appbrowser-cli is bugged and not install package with long name)
-sudo rm /etc/sysconfig/icons for wbar (but is superfluous)
-tce-load -w -i -r openbox.tczl (or Xfce4, but this does not work on vbox!)
-startx (it works but you need to click several times on the screen before you can view the menu for bug of guestaddiction unfixable)

Ok very thanks for Kingdomcome for resolving all'of the problem, and thanks to other all for give my attention and and their precious time.
W tinycore, W gnumovement, W the bugs... ehm :D
