one for KMS (all cards) , second for Xorg (some cards).

in case of my x1300 card, i need /lib/firmware/radeon/R520_cp.bin or KMS might fail to start.

True, see firmware.tcz

@jur: Since that file does not exist in the base, it's a great candidate for an additional initrd, even if you use grub.
Place only it to a gzipped cpio archive, place the archive into tce dir. Profit :)

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

The dmesg | grep eeepc returns empty in tc3.0a.

I am using Asus 1000HE eeepc.

Forgot a suggestion (Sweden is playing hockey right now so I might be a little distracted). I changed the colour of the title bar to medium grey instead of light blue and I think it looks better but it's just an aesthetical thing.

Have fun and keep up the good work,
meo

P.S. Nice new logo!!! D.S.

bmarkus:
On a stock TC I installed following extensions with appbrowser:

mc.tcz
glib2-dev.tcz
libiconv-dev.tcz
compiletc.tcz

/tce is stored on Linux ext4 partition of USB stick.

All extensions including dependencies are loaded and it works as expected. However after reboot only

mc.tcz
glib2-dev.tcz
libiconv-dev.tcz

loaded with their deps, compiletc and its dependencies are not. Reinstalling TC, formatting drive, moving /tce from USB to HDD ext3 partition gives the same result.

Trying to load compiletc.tcz from local repo appbrowser just gets stucked but nothing happenes.

Arslan S.:
when i update dep files  through appsaudit some entries inside some dep files related to kernel modules are named to *-2.6.29.1-tinycore.tcz

for example:
download alsa, then update dep database then see alsa.tcz.dep
