I asked about this earlier in this thread:http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=549.0
Since that extension (and others) only require the Xorg libs to run it wouldn't need all of Xorg downloaded when selected in the appbrowser. Would it make sense just to take out all (or most?) of the Xlibs and have the Xorg.dep file include these?


--- Quote ---I have personally never had an app crash that depends on Xorg libraries when run in Xvesa mode with the Xorg libraries installed in the system

I have not had an app crash because of this either. The only thing I have really needed Xorg for are touchscreens.

Jason W:
I think, and I am sure most would agree, that we don't need to break up the Xorg extension.  These libs would simply get overwritten by the same files in the case the Xorg extension is loaded.  I also think that this extension is best kept only as big as it has to be rather than including all of the Xorg libs.  But that is just my opinion.

Removed skype_support in favor of Xlibs_support

alu:
the title of the post makes me curious: does it mean that skype would run with this extension loaded? it would be great since i and others would very much like to use skype with tc-2.*

Jason W:
This extension was X libraries that were renamed Xlibs_support.  It has nothing to do with skype not running on TC 2.x.
