... YESSSS it works ...Good. Now you can submit it to the repository. One of the files created by the script should be HideMouse-aarch64.tar.gz.bfe.
Attached is the aarch64 version of HideMouse for TC12.
HideMouse-aarch64.tar.gz.bfe contains the extension and the source tarball.
It tries to start but comes with a Gtk-WARNING: "cannot open display"I'm afraid I know nothing about wayland. Sorry.
Does it ring a bell?

Using Xorg, is there a way to change the X-screen with the Tiny-Core logo?
... And can I change the blue X desktop screen?
Hi audiophilelistenerthe starting-screen is blue with a TC-logo. Making it black could be nice.Using Xorg, is there a way to change the X-screen with the Tiny-Core logo?... And can I change the blue X desktop screen?
Are you talking about replacing the black background or making it black?
I saw something during installation of firefox....
It installed also one or more "wayland" things, which I found out, could be an alternative for Xorg
There are also wayland packages in the repo

If you use firefox with x there is no need to set $GDK_BACKEND
If you use firefox with a wayland compositor (for example weston) then you need to set $GDK_BACKEND - basically it is passing instructions to gtk3 as to what kind of display to use - most other gtk3 apps are smart enough to figure this out for themselves..
hsetroot -add "#0E5CA8" -add "#87C6C9" -gradient 0 -center /usr/local/share/pixmaps/logo.png
hsetroot -solid "#000000"
Hi audiophilelistener
The logo is provided by Xprogs.tcz which you can't remove because Xorg.tcz depends on it.
Edit the ~/.setbackground file and change this:Code: [Select]hsetroot -add "#0E5CA8" -add "#87C6C9" -gradient 0 -center /usr/local/share/pixmaps/logo.png
to this:Code: [Select]hsetroot -solid "#000000"
Then run a backup and startx.
It would probably be easier to use x, but you could try weston - be sure to read the info file.

I’ll try that tomorrow.
Thx, you’re a great help 🙏
Now you can submit it to the repository. One of the files created by the script should be HideMouse-aarch64.tar.gz.bfe.Done that.

Try this. Create a file (pick any name you like) containing the following:Code: [Select]DISPLAY=:0 firefox &
Place that file in ~/.X.d
When you start X, the ~/.xsession file should execute that command after Xorg starts.
