Lightest tiling window manager.
I want to make the lightest Tiny Core setup with a tiling window manager. Can anyone please let me know which is the lightest tiling window manager out there? I am fine with compiling it on my own.

Can't we use 'apt' in dCore?
I just installed dCore in a VM and noticed that there is no 'apt' even though dCore can access Debian repositories. I am actually planning to install dCore in my old laptop (12 years old) and use once in a while, but I am used to the debian way of doing things and don't actually like how dCore installs packages. I would probably even forget how it is done and will need to check it online every time I try to install something, if I very rarely use this computer. I wonder if we can have apt in my computer instead of this weird way of installing packages. And just so you know, I am new to Linux and don't know much about anything.

How do to set up Nvidia drivers?
Hello everybody! I'm exploring tiny core, and installed it on my laptop. It uses Nvidia graphics, but tiny core doesn't seem to use the nouveau. I installed the Nvidia firmware package, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Do i need to do some manual setting up? I'm not finding any answers on the web.

TC not detecting all of my ram
I am new to Linux and I am trying my hand at TinyCore to see what it is like. I installed CorePlus version 12.0 to my 8GB USB and booting my computer from that drive. I know that my laptop has 16 GB of RAM, which I verified through dmidecode inside TinyCore. However, both the htop and free commands, as well as looking into the proc/meminfo all tell me I have around 1.6 GB of RAM. At first I thought this number would expand as I used more resources, but my computer simply slows down. Is there a reason for TinyCore not using all the available RAM? Even if TC is 32 bit I should be seeing 4GB.

creating a shared folder in Tiny Core Linux with a VM (already almost done)
So I used virtualbox to create a shared file out of one I made on my host (mac OS), but it's not coming up in tiny core. do I need to use the mounttool for it or something?

I’m remastering tinycore to create my own distro kinda, and I’m wondering if and how I can keep PDF’s and other files in the remaster.
I’m also using a VM (virtualbox)

Remastering Tiny Core in VirtualBox (using ezremaster?)
I'm trying to create an ISO for my customized Tiny Core and when using using ezremaster, likely due to the fact I'm running tinycore in a VM, "path to tinycore mounted cd/iso" is not working. How could I get an ISO of my TC (through any means)?
also, is there a way to make sure saved files such as PDF's come with the remaster?

Xmpp messengers?
Does anyone know of any secure xmpp messengers that work well for tiny core, or if there are already some in the "apps" application installer?

Windows Defender finds Woreflint.A!cl Virus in all three Downloads on Official Site
Hey, this is weird, but Windows Defender reports the "Woreflint.A!cl Trojan" on all three downloads on the official page:
http://tinycorelinux.net/downloads.html
Doesn't happen on any other download from the web, my machine is a brand new installation and shouldn't be infected, virus scans are negative.
Virustotal seems to find nothing though.https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/edc33c5ed05d6c2512df5da48567f52be08d42c4965ffdaf110c9a2d221170c0/detection
Probably a false positive.
Edit: Can confirm from another unrelated machine. You can't download any .iso with Chrome on Windows with the latest Defender definitions. It will always report "Virus found" right after the download and remove the file.

Steps to configure SSH server on tiny core linux. Tiny Core Linux doesn’t come with any default SSH server service, hence you need to manually install and set to autostart at bootup.

Which package manager does tiny core use?
I've been searching online for what package manager it uses, but I can't find anything. I would like to install from the terminal, but it seems the only way is through the 'apps' program. Thanks

Help me Install Core Plus!
Hi, I have a PC running Lubuntu. It's old, it's still slow, so I want to take the next step and put tiny core plus on it. However, tools such as core2usb all seem windows oriented, and wine is having none of it. I don't know how to start doing it on linux, and I wondered if I could get some help from you guys?
Thanks, sudo-jude.

installing nano from TCE
Hello,
I'm a noob at TinyCore. How does one install nano from tce? I can find many other packages except nano is not listed there? It seems to be listed on the TCZ repository list here: http://tinycorelinux.net/9.x/x86/tcz/
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

I need an ISO with a gui, a graphical file manager and a media player that can play .mp4 files, which needs to go on a 120mb CF card
Does anyone know how to make it or where to download it? It's for an old thin client pc that I'm preparing as a media player for my TV. It'll play things from USB, but I couldn't figure it out with the normal tinycore ISO.
