Hi, I have TC on an eeePC 900. I followed this guys helpful instructions here:
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=988.0
except I run the patched 915resolution from the /opt/bootsync.sh script. It works perfectly and the resolution is at 1024x600.
Unfortunately when he computer boots now, the touchpad "double finger scroll" has stopped working... I originally got this to work by adding a mouse boot code psmouse.proto=imps
Is it possible that me running 915resolution from bootsync.sh is causing the problem, or could it be the patched version is causing the problem?
Is there anyway I can set the mouse proto from within bootsync.sh?
Many thanks.

edit:
My apologies, it isnt the 915resolution thats stopping the mouse scrolling working! I have stopped 915resolution from running and the mouse still cant scroll with 2 finger dragging... Not sure what is stopping it.

edit:
It turned out my .xsession file had some wrong mouse settings in, not sure how it happened, I mustve run a settings program when figuring out the screen res. and forgotte Ide done it perhaps... anyway it is fixed :)
the right settings for future reference, in .xsession:
/usr/bin/Xvesa -br -screen 1024x600x24 -shadow -mouse /dev/input/mice,5 -nolisten tcp -I >/dev/null 2>&1 &

Cool. I kind of miss my eeePC 1000. It's taking a while, but I'm finally getting this Satellite T215D to a point that it is not so frustrating to use.

I had not noticed this thread until now. For what it's worth, TC 3.5 works perfectly on my Eee900. This is a copy of the relevant lines from my grub.conf:

The problems with mouse control are fixed by psmouse.proto=imps
