why 74.-1 returns -1 when there are exists Active Network Device?

Code and screen attached.
Tested in QEMU.

I used ebx in kernel instead of bl, like for the rest of the functions. It was illogical so I fixed it.

Now function returns 1 if there is no device and 2 if one.
Clarify, please, is this behaviour OK?

To view the status of the stack, please look at netstat program instead
You'll notice that there is always a loopback device when stack is active. It is counted as one device.

Using netstat program is clear. But I need to check network card status for some programs, like HTMLv and Liza. If there is active network card no need to run downloader in HTMLv and try to connect to server in Liza.

You should try to connect, and work with the returned error codes instead

OK, I'll try. Thanks

On one of my parents' computers, the network card is not always found/initialized:

10ec  8136   03   00   00   02   02   00   00   0b   REALTEK SEMICONDUCTOR CORP.                Network - Ethernet 

PCIDEV finds the card on resolution 1024x768, but doesn't find it on resolution 1280x1024. Boardlog shows that the card completes initialization on resolution 1024x768. On resolution 1280x1024 the initialization is started, but never completes (NETCFG is stuck with 99% CPU usage, and cannot be killed). Night build r3840, kernel SVN r3837.

Output of boardlog + PCIDEV on 1024x768:
Output of boardlog + PCIDEV on 1280x1024:

The bug is possibly fixed in latest build, I should however take the time to review all code someday...

Sorry, not fixed.

Kolibri build #3886, Qemu 0.15.1.

Leency, have patience
I'll let you know when it is fixed.

PS: I have gained some insight on what the exact problem could be but have not made any attempt to fix it yet.
PSS: If it annoys you too much while testing, edit SOCKET_process_end in socket.inc, to ret immedately. This way sockets will not be closed, but system will not hang either

Hi, Jeffrey

Some pages are not fully loaded in HTMLv. You can see it at our homepage (see scr).
Please, contact me if you will need additional information or testing.

Another strange thing: I saw pages, where was strlen(bufpointer) > bufsize.
For example, http://websvn.kolibrios.org/ page. Difference was about 500 byte. Why is it so?
