| + | ===== FixMe ===== | ||
| + | The dCore project is grass roots Linux supported primarily by developer Jason W with assistance from the Tiny Core Linux team and keen members. Keeping all this software running is a moving target as dCore and Linux develop, Debian and Ubuntu repositories change, packages get updated, etc. A script that previously worked well may require updating to accommodate changes or a new release. It's a lot of work for a small assembly of volunteers. Whenever possible, attempt to provide a solution or work around for the problem. | ||

Please notify forum member nitram about any new or changed items regarding the FixMe list below. Script updates and patches should be submitted to Jason W for review. | ||
