I didn't have a set color, I have an image, I was testing the color setter. I saw this behaviour twice. I started by setting a blue-ish background, going back, yep it worked, went back again, nope green. So I tried again, and the second time after setting to blue-ish, it came up with the green-ish immediately.

Please remind me, is systool what loads the init.d scripts? If so please explain how it works now.

@bigpcman: AFAIK there is no direct connection between 'systool' and 'init.d'.

I recommend when you come across an "unfamiliar" command you should try first a search via a useful reference page. Most things are not unique to TC / MC. In this case this man page might provide you with some pointers. Otherwise you could end up with a "RTFM response"  ;).

I read that some more system libraries were updated (e.g. 'libjepg'). I assume that base-dev.tcz will soon reflect those changes (if not already done).

With regards to the removed items:
(1) Is it planned to make 'logsave' available via a suitable extension? Not that I'm missing it, but I guess that has been the case in the past for similar cases.
(2) Likewise will 'libss.a' remain in base-dev.tcz after the shared library was removed from Core, or will they all find a "new home"?
(3) I'm not sure which 'logtrans' was removed, but 'logtran' is still in the Core (and another one in the libjpeg-utils.tcz extension):
--- Code: ---tc@box:~$ version ; which jpegtran
tinycore_3.0alpha6
/usr/bin/jpegtran

--- End code ---

maro:
To continue with my nit-picking today: I just stumbled over a potential contradiction to "... and libfontenc has not received an update since the 7.4 days. ..." (see post) insofar as according to a certain Xorg 7.5 page libfontenc-1.0.5 is the relevant version for that release.

Looking at some release dates on a log page I assume that what was build a year ago would most likely be libfontenc-1.0.4. But hey, I could be totally wrong with all my conclusions ...
