so im trying get a setup with "gnome-desktop-base"
but startx seems to quit with error
hesetroot[14199]: segfault at 88 ip 08049 sp bfbdc360 eror 4 in hsetroot[804800+4000]
like the one in this (italian) thred http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,5224.msg29471.html#msg29471 (http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,5224.msg29471.html#msg29471)
this is my setup
after folowing steps from "gnome-desktop-base.tcz.info (http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/gnome-desktop-base.tcz.info)"
kernel /boot/bzImage laptop tce=sda5/tcX/3.x mydata=gnome_data lst=gnome.lst
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz
--gnome.lst
gnome-desktop-base.tcz
kernel /boot/bzImage laptop tce=sda5/tcX/3.x mydata=gnome_data_mc lst=mc-gnome.lst
initrd /boot/microcore.gz
--mc-gnome.lst
Xprogs.tcz
Xlibs.tcz
Xorg-7.5.tcz
gnome-desktop-base.tcz
both give error
after some searching forums
i can see im missing any thing obvious :(
-
hsetroot segfaults if X could not start, usually at least.

thanks !
it seems xorg auto config and intel gfx is the cause ,
looks like i have some more reading to do
-
booting cleen with option lst=xorg_test.lst
xorg_test.lst contains "Xorg-7.5.tcz"
this boots to prompt and
shows the same segfault error , log attached
however i have vbox.lst with "virtualbox-ose.tcz"
starting with this option
boots to desktop with vbox in wbar menu
virtualbox-ose.tcz module depends on Xorg-7.5
any ideas
why is vbox + Xorg-7.5 working
and just Xorg-7.5
or gnome + Xorg-7.5
failing with error ?
???
-
"(WW) intel(0): No outputs definitely connected, trying again..." - maybe something that's fixed in 7.6.
I don't see Xorg in virtualbox-ose.tcz.tree? In that case, it's likely Xvesa that's running.

just to be clear im using tc 3.8.4 ,
it is in the tree ! at least the one im using (from the 3.x repo)
i cheked in the dep
and also its loaded when i look in tce.installed (or the controls panel thing)
http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/virtualbox-ose.tcz.dep (http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/virtualbox-ose.tcz.dep)
http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/virtualbox-ose.tcz.tree (http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/virtualbox-ose.tcz.tree)
it seems to work when loaded with vbox but not on its own

Hi dubcore
(EE) open /dev/fb0: No such device
This is the first error that shows up in the failing log file but is not present in the working log file. I have that device
entry present on machines running Xorg and Xvesa.
tc@box:~/msrbcusips$ ls -l /dev/fb0
crw--w--w- 1 root root 29, 0 Mar 4 2010 /dev/fb0
After it segfaults, check if it is present, if not, try this:
sudo mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0
sudo chmod 644 /dev/fb0
startx
-
OK, I see now. Intel requires the graphics- extension, which is not required by Xorg-7.5 by itself, but is loaded by the virtualbox dep file.

i tryed with
if [ `ls /dev/fb0` = "/dev/fb0" ] ;
then
echo "gotit" ;
else
echo "createfb+test" ;
sudo mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0 ;
sudo chmod 664 /dev/fb0 ;
startx ;
fi
but i have device /dev/fb0
despite the error from the log

embarrassingly this is one of the first thing i try (xorg+gfx)
but i must have stayed up to early trying to get this woking !
because im replying from gnome desktop ! (im shore before this booted me to blank screen )
booting with xorg_gfx_test.lst = "graphics-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz \n Xorg-7.5 "
all though it shows segfault error
and boots to prompt
running startx loads tc default background + wbar etal
loading gnome +setup then runing startx
every thing seems to work as expected
tho
this appears in dmesg
pulseaudio[21814]: segfault at 0 ip b76e440d sp bfe7e06c error 4 in libX11-xcb.so.1.0.0[b76e4000+1000]
@* thanks !!
now i will try this setup with tc4 ;D
