Title: cannot install xf86-video-intel
Post by: realdoGmaI on May 26, 2015, 04:21:42 AM

Hi everyone
I'm pretty new to TinyCore, but till now, I succesfully created a bootable CD-Rom with all the things I need to obatin a fully functional Terminal Server client

Now I need to install Xorg for a double monitor client, and I'm trying to download and install xf86-video-intel.tcz because my client has an Intel HD Video Card

I tryed with the Graphical Apps tool and with tce-ab to install this module, but it can't be installed succesfully because it depends on graphics-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz, and I can't install it. I succesfully installed graphics-3.16.6-tinycore64.tcz, but when I try to install graphics-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz I get this error:

Code: [Select]

Downloading: graphics-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz
Connecting to repo.tinycorelinux.net (89.22.99.37:80)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 416 Request Range Not Satisfiable
graphics-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz: FAILED
md5sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 computed checksums did NOT match
Error on graphics-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz

I tried to browse http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/6.x/x86_64/tcz/ and I can see only graphics-3.16.6-tinycore64.tcz

Maybe I'm missing something?
Do I have to download it manually from 5.x repo and install it manually?

Thanks for any suggestion

what version (tce-6.x, tc-5.x, ) and what architecture (x86, x86_64, ) are you using?

If you're using corepure64 (i.e. x86_64), the apps gui should download xf86-video-intel and graphics-KERNEL, glamor-egl and libxcb, where $KERNEL=3.16.6-tinycore64 - all from the x86_64 repo.

If you're using core64 (i.e. x86 with 64-bit kernel drivers), the apps gui should download xf86-video-intel and graphics-KERNEL, where $KERNEL=3.16.6-tinycore64 - all from the x86 repo.

I'm using TinyCore-current.iso, the one downloaded from here http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/6.x/x86/release/TinyCore-current.iso (http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/6.x/x86/release/TinyCore-current.iso)

Reading the real address as I posted it, I'm starting to think I didn't replied correctly to your question.
Am I using a x86 version instead of x64?

Maybe this is the source of problems?

TinyCore-current.iso is the fully 32-bit version of tinycore, so you need  xf86-video-intel and graphics-3.16.6-tinycore.

..but still, the apps gui should download these for you automatically. Maybe you could use the apps gui to mark xf86-video-intel and graphics-3.16.6-tinycore* for deletion, reboot and try to use the apps gui to download and load them again?

Hello Juanito

Thanks for your help
I tried as you suggested removing both dependencies and reinstalling them
Now the GUI apps downloaded everything correcly. I just noticed that when I try to install xf86-video-intel the screen goes black and I have to restart the machine (but I suppose the problem is due to using a virtual machine for testing purposes). Now I have the intel_drv.so file on my system in the correct position.

Thanks for your help
