TCE Q&A Forum / Why are tinycore64 tcz files in the 32bit tcz mirror download folder
« Last post by jackk on February 21, 2026, 09:43:18 PM »
I see some tinycore64 tcz files in the 32bit mirror download folder and don't understand why they are there. The folder typically has the 32bit version of the the software when it has the 64 bit version. It seems too frequent to be a mistake. I am looking at the 17.x collection. I am undertaking sustained learning project to get familiar with Tiny Core and admit to being puzzled by this feature.

TCE Q&A Forum / Re: is XFE working with smb?
« Last post by nick65go on February 21, 2026, 02:59:33 PM »
FYI: 08/02/2026 - Version 2.1.4 released, http://roland65.free.fr/xfe/
You can ignore my previous post, because only in "18/05/2025 - Version 2.1 released" it has " Xfe can connect to Windows shares and SSH servers. Use Tools / Connect to Server or press Shift-F5 and fill your network parameters into the dialog.";

but TC17 has only "Current: 2024/09/28 updated 1.45 -> 1.46.2". Sorry for the noise.

TCE Q&A Forum / is XFE working with smb?
« Last post by nick65go on February 21, 2026, 02:10:19 PM »
Hi, is XFE (the X File Manager) working with "windows shared folders"?
I tried xfe (ver. 2.1.1. from Debian x86-64) into Archlinux (basically in CachyOS x86-64-v3).  But also xfe (ver 2.1.1 from Alpine Linux) into a chroot. I installed all packages (and automatic dependencies).
Code: [Select]
apk add xfe gvfs-fullIn both cases, even running XFE as root user, I can not manage to connect to a "windows folder" /smb (shared from Windows11). From menu "Tools", "Connect to Servers" I chose the correct values (for Server=192.168.5.200, Type=Windows share (drop-down), Share=TMP, Username=test, Passowd=..". (All were proved correctly connecting in KDE just by typing in Dolphin (file manager) the URL as "smb://test@192.168.5.200/TMP").

The error message was "gio: smb://; test@192.168.5.200/TMP/: volume doesn't implement mount". Could you confirm that in your TC (latest version ??) is working correctly, without any eventual dbus / whatever manually started?  Thank you.

Hi Kingston
If you go to the search page:
https://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?action=search
and enter:
Code: [Select]
"print server"including the quotation marks in the  Search for:  field you'll get
about 45 results. Maybe there's something useful there.

... I just installed V16 and tried to install some extensions. ...
Which extensions? It's difficult to help you if we don't know
the extensions you are attempting to use for this.

... But nothing is running.
Services don't run automatically. They typically need to be
configured and then started.

You also need to decide what kind of print server you want.

Something simple:
https://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,27573.0.html
This uses the  p910nd  daemon and feeds the printer directly.
You can find it on github.

Or something more complex, with a print queue and buffering.
In that case you probably want something like  cups.
