Tiny Core on Virtual Machines / Re: I would like to enable 1080p resolution

There’s no need to have so many extensions onboot, it would be easier to troubleshoot if you have just the 5 extensions I mentioned earlier

And if you are on Virtualbox, you also can change the Max Screen Size there.

This instructions is taken from the web:

1. Go to File > Preferences
2. Go to Display
3. Change Maximum Guest Screen Size to Hint or to None.
4. Enter 1920 x 1080 as a width and height.
5. Restart the virtual machine and voila! It just shows the right resolution.

This doesn't work for me, both hint or none.

That's graphics-6-18-35-tinycore64.tcz for me.
I installed that and put it in my onboot, it still doesn't boot into 1920x1080

You can test to add a bootcode so you will see whats tcz being loaded when booting.

Hi MaxFury

I am unable to find a .tcz in APP gui call "graphics-KERNEL" ...

You can enter:

Code: [Select]

tce-load -w graphics-KERNELand the correct version will get downloaded into your tce directory.

KERNEL stands for the kernel version you are currently running.

Or, using the apps GUI, enter  graphics  in the search box and
select the extension that contains  tinycore64  in its name.

These two pictures show what my onboot look like. I think most of these things show up after I install the GUI for TC install

I think there were some messages during boot, but I can't read them because they only flashed for a second and then the system booted successfully
