wireless_tools.tcz for tcV3..lists wireless-KERNEL.tcz as a dependency..
I don't think this is correct...no such extension

That is fine (new feature). Is there an actual problem with it?
Juanito:
When you use the appbrowser or cli to download the extension, it will download either wireless-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz or wireless-2.6.33.3-tinycore64.tcz and the local copy of the dep file will also be modified accordingly.

Once the problem in tc2.x was tracked down and corrected, the tc3.x glibc was built in the same way.

When installing graphics-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz, the screen goes blank and the external monitor switches off. Ctrl-alt-bksp still works, and the text screen seems to have been switched to a higher resolution.
Mounting Xorg despite this, makes the PC freeze requiring a hard reset.

I saw the same thing using the i915 module due to it working in KMS mode rather than UMS mode (dixit Curaga), adding "options i915 modeset=0" to /etc/modprobe.conf fixes this.
I can get the i915 module to work without the above by removing "vga=xxx" from the boot codes, but since this mode of operation clashes with both Xvesa and Xorg-7.4, things will be messed up again once you drop out of x.

It might be worth looking at "dmesg | grep ACPI" to see which keys are recognised on boot?
