Hi!

I'm impressed of the fast development of tinycore 3.0. Thanks to all that have been involved in the development of this excellent release even though it's still in alpha stage. It has worked extremely well with my laptop that is more than 8 years old. So thanks a lot!

Have fun developing tinycore 3.0 further,
meo

Eee pc users, the module now depends on both hwmon and pci-hotplug.

Good morning:

I use icewm. I notice that in the move to TC3.0 (all alpha's), the dropdown menu (right click on background) no longer contains a "Applications" ("tce extensions") entry. I am guessing that icewm may need an update, as this was not the case in 2.11.

This does not happen with flwm. The dropdown menu works as expected.

Also, the "TC Tools" entry in this dropdown is incomplete, that is, not all tools are listed. Perhaps not compatible with icewm?

Otherwise, I am having no problems so far with alpha3.

Best Regards,

sci_fi

Alpha testing has been focused on the base.
The next phase will be to revisit the various window managers.
They should be ready during the release candidate phase.
