Hello everyone.
last week-end I compiled successfully from sources the transmission torrent program to have the latest available version with the GUI component. The process followed the typical linux installation process, namely
./configure
make
sudo make install
All went well; it was perfectly working, but after the reboot there was no trace of the newly installed program.
I had to retype the sudo install command from inside the folder with the sources to make it available again.
Moreover I was not able to make an ondemand menu voice to start transmission.
What procedure is to follow if I have the need to compile something from sources?
thank you very much

You need to make an extension - see the extension section of the wiki.

Hi Juanito,
I've downloaded the new xfe package from the author's web page and I've built the extension as described in the tinycore book chapter 15.
Finally I gave the command tce-load -i xfe.tcz [xfe.tcz is the name I gave to the extension] and the extension got loaded. After reboot all is lost somehow and I hade to give the tce-load command again.
How can I add my new extension on the ondemand list to start it without loading it at boot time?
the book says I have to add the extension entry in /etc/sysconfig/onboot.lst. Is this the only way the user-created extension gets visible after reboot?
thank you

Yes :)

I forgot to move the extension to the /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional directory so apps Audit didn't find it.
With my xfe.tcz therein I was able to add it on the ondemand list.
Thank you
