What is your network card? What type of connection do you use?

I use a lan cable and I've got a realtek network card. How to install a realtek driver and how to access the internet then?

Can you say number of card? Because Realtek produces many different cards.

No, I'm meaning full model of card - name and number.
The current actual kernel (trunk) is supporting RTL8029, RTL8139 and RTL8169.

EuropeanDeveloper, you do not need to install anything by hand - in the current kernel model all existing drivers are already built into the kernel.
To see, whether the kernel supports your card, boot the system, open the application BOARD - its icon is located in the upper-right corner of the screen - and switch to the "tab" named "User". One of programs, which get loaded at boot, tries to initialize a network card and query an address from DHCP server; it prints messages to the BOARD.

ok, thanks for this information. My board prints the following text out:
Code: Select all
opening socket
"http://google.com/"
"google.com"
"/"
"Resolving..."
"GotReponse"
"GotReponse"
"Resolved"
Get / HTTP/1.1
Host: google.com
User-Agent: Kolibrios Downloader
Connection: close
rid
close socket: 00000000
pos = 00000212
The HTML Viewer says "301 Moved...", so does ist connect, but not show the document or is there no connection with the internet?

Congratulations, you're online!
Try to delete some demos and games from /rd/1/games or /rd/1/games folders. This problem may be because downloaded internet pages are stored on ramdrive (which is almost full).
Btw, you can launch IRC client to check your network connection.

ok. yeah, thanks
Спасибо!
(I'm learning Russian language)
Is there another way to boot KolibriOs, so that not the ramdrive is used?
