Re: 10Mbps full duplex IOS [7:68227]
It depends on a lot of things. We found over the years even if they were set to full, and the ahrdware supported it, they would flip back to half. I am thinking we got a couple to work using GD 12.1 images, but have not visited the issue in a while. They definiately did not work on the early 12.0 images. Tim Champion wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I am looking for an IOS version that will support 10Mbps full duplex on a 3640. Cisco documentation suggests that this option was made available in version 12.0.4(T). I've tried numerous versions but can't find one that supports it. Any suggestions please.

In some cases you can get a link light and think everything is fine, when actually there are problems due to a duplex mismtach. Only a speed issue, not a duplex issue. When the 10/100 side is hard set to 100Mb so that it doesn't negotiate nor autosense, and the other side is a legacy 10Mb/half interface, then the 10Mb side will get a false link indication. The 100Mb fast link pulses produce enough energy in the band where the 10Mb interface is looking for them, to fool it. The 100Mb side will correctly show no link. The tip off is that the 10Mb side sees zero valid input frames in its counters. The 100Mb transmitter appears to be forever streaming. - Marty Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=57672t=57431 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: full duplex or half duplex, how can you tell [7:57431]
John, It will be half duplex unless it has been configured for full duplex. Setting an ethernet interface to full duplex is done in software and requires a recent IOS.

John, Cisco's 25xx series uses the AMD Lance Chip for their 10Mbit Ethernet Interface. This Chipset does not support full-duplex at all. Router#show controllers ethernet 0 LANCE unit 0, ^ Have never used a 2516 myself but as far as i know it has a simple 10Mbit Ethernet Hub built in. FullDuplex Operation would require a switch.

The half-duplex side would receive while it was sending, because the full-duplex side would send whenever it wanted. In other words, the 2500 side would report collisions, assuming there was enough simultanesous traffic. I think the best answer is that the 2500 routers pre-date the full-duplex standard. I bet they don't do full-duplex. seriously, I believe all routers in the 25xx line are 10/half. there is no report on speed and duplex on routers that I can find. That's annoying.

Re: A HUB can work in Full-duplex mode? [7:52973]
r34rv13wm1rr0r wrote: No. The collision domain on a hub is shared throughout causing each port to listen before transmitting. No is correct. A hub can't be configured for full-duplex. If it can be, it's been misnamed. It's really a switch. But the explanation is not correct. A hub port doesn't listen before sending. It doesn't do MAC data-link-layer tasks. It simply forward bits that come in one port out all other ports. On a proper-sized network, the sending end hosts will still be monitoring their transmission, notice any collisions, and retransmit. In my new book, Troubleshooting Campus Networks, I have the following relevant paragraphs: Collisions on Networks with Hubs and Switches A hub is a repeater that simplifies cabling designs, permitting a star configuration with a hub at the center, like the hub in an old hub-and-spoke wheel. Repeaters and hubs have a few other important jobs and characteristics also. Signals going through a repeater are retimed using the repeater#8217;s timing circuitry to prevent the accumulation of signal jitter. A repeater also regenerates the signal to the proper amplitude and symmetry. Another job of a repeater is to rebuild a received preamble to avoid preambles getting shorter as they go through repeaters#8217; timing circuits. Repeaters also extend any fragments that have resulted from frames that collided and were cut short. The repeater extends the signal so that the total number of bits output equals 96 bits. Fragment extension ensures that short collision fragments survive a trip through a maximum-size network in the correct time frame. Stations receiving the extended fragment discard it and also defer from sending until the collision event is over. One of the most important tasks of a repeater is to enforce collisions on each connected segment. Repeaters enforce collisions by transmitting a collision-enforcement jam signal. Upon detecting a collision on one segment, a repeater transmits a collision enforcement jam signal on that segment and all other connected segments. This ensures that any station trying to send at that moment hears the collision. In this way, a repeater makes sure all stations are in the same collision domain and can react to collisions correctly. When a repeater detects a collision, it sends a 96-bit jam composed of alternating ones and zeros. Switches are replacing hubs in large campus networks. It is a common misconception that switches don#8217;t need to know about CSMA/CD and that collisions don#8217;t occur on switched networks. In fact, each switch port implements the CSMA/CD standard. When sending a frame, a half-duplex switch port senses carrier, defers if necessary, detects collisions, backs off, and retransmits. Whether a collision might occur or not depends on what is connected to the switched port. If a shared medium is connected to the switch, collisions may occur. Ethernet troubleshooters often wonder about cut-through switches and collisions. A cut-through switch outputs bits as soon as the destination address has been received and the destination port determined. What if there is a collision on that port? Should the switch send a collision enforcement jam on the port that received the frame so the original sender knows to try again? Or has the switch cached the frame so that it can do the retransmitting? Some troubleshooters assume that cut-through processing means that the frame was not cached. Vendor implementations may vary, but Cisco cut-through switches cache all frames, even when in cut-through mode. In this way, each port can handle CSMA/CD duties for that port and no other port. A switch retransmits if a collision occurs and does not notify the original sender in any way. Each port truly delimits a collision domain.

Full-Duplex Communication [7:47562]
Full-Duplex Communication You can select half-duplex or full-duplex communication. The advantage of using full-duplex is that communication packets can flow in both directions simultaneously, which results in doubling the throughput capacity on the segment. Full-duplex communication eliminates the performance degradation resulting from packet collisions. Packets cannot collide because they each travel on their own path--like cars going in opposite directions on a two-lane highway. So while the effective bandwidth to a 10BaseT port configured for half-duplex Ethernet is a maximum of 10 Mbps, with full-duplex Ethernet it is doubled to 20 Mbps. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat3ks/3000/acopspcs.htm Catalyst 5000 Series Supervisor II engine ports on 10/100 ports on Fast EtherChannel-capable line cards enable high-speed connectivity between switches, switches and routers, and switches and servers. Up to four Fast Ethernet ports can be grouped to provide up to 800 Mbps of load-sharing, redundant, and point-to-point connections between the Catalyst 5500, 5509, 5505, 5002, and 5000 switches. To achieve higher bandwidth, Gigabit EtherChannel can be deployed, which supports up to 8 Gbps (full-duplex) of inter-switch bandwidth, and is supported across the Catalyst 5000 Family. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/ca5000.htm If I connect a server to a swtich full duplex then if only one client connected with its gig eth card, he can't use 2 gigs. I think they are writing these manuals incorrectly. Cause you can use 1 gig for sending 1 gig for receiving. Not 2 gigs sending and receiving. If you say to a customer that with gig ether channel they can reach up to 8 gigs on 6500 swithes he will obviously thinks that he can send 8 gig and receive 8 gig not 4 gig RX for gig TX.

Re: full-duplex Ethernet cable? [7:31643]
AFAIK, Ethernet would need 1,2 for transmit and 3,6 for receive (and CSMA\CD if half-duplex). Cable dosen't make a station full or half-duplex, it's the hardware. -- RFC 1149 Compliant.

RE: full-duplex Ethernet cable? [7:31643]
Hi mlh, Depends on the speed. 10/100mbps full/half duplex uses two pair of the four pairs in a CAT 5 cable. 1000mbps full/half duplex uses all four pair of a CAT 5 cable. Follow the link for the explanation of full and half duplex. http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/f/full_duplex.html Theoretically in full duplex mode each machine can send and receive on a separate pair thus doubling your bandwidth. For example, 100mbps in full duplex mode could send 100mbps on one pair and receive 100mbps on the other pair at the same time which equals 200mbps. This would mean both devices are sending 100mbps. Full duplex would be a point-to-point connection and nothing in between the two devices. In half duplex mode only one machine can send at anytime. I don't know if I covered it all, please correct me if I am wrong.

At 11:56 AM 1/11/02, mlh wrote: how many pairs of two-twisted cable are used for full-duplex Ethernet ? what is the difference between full- and half- duplex cable? 10Base-T and 100Base-T unshielded twisted-pair cabling uses two pairs, for both full duplex and half duplex. There's a transmit pair and a receive pair. A station's transmit pair gets crossed over at the hub or switch to mean receive at the hub or switch. The hub or switch's transmit pair becomes receive at the station. It's not the cabling that distinguishes half-duplex and full-duplex. It's the logical topology, hardware, and configuration. With half-duplex, if a station receives bits on its receive pair while transmitting bits on its transmit pair, this is considered a collision. The station must stop transmitting, back off, and retransmit. A half-duplex network is shared. Every device on the hub (or coax cable) shares the bandwidth and must obey the rules of Carrier Sense Multiple Access, Collision Detect. Listen before sending. Listen while sending to see if another station started sending at the same time and back off if that's the case. Full duplex works on a point-to-point link between a station and a switch. Bandwidth is not shared. In this case, receiving while you are sending it perfectly legitimate. So, to upgrade a network from half-duplex to full-duplex doesn't require new cabling, but it does require a new logical topology and possibly new hardware: switches and Network Interface Cards (NICs) that support full duplex. It also requires that the administrator configure everything for full duplex (or use auto-negotiation which is risky because it's buggy.) Hope that helps. Priscilla Thank you in advance.

Every device on the hub (or coax cable) shares the bandwidth and must obey the rules of Carrier Sense Multiple Access, Collision Detect. Listen before sending. Listen while sending to see if another station started sending at the same time and back off if that's the case. Full duplex works on a point-to-point link between a station and a switch. Bandwidth is not shared. In this case, receiving while you are sending it perfectly legitimate. So, to upgrade a network from half-duplex to full-duplex doesn't require new cabling, but it does require a new logical topology and possibly new hardware: switches and Network Interface Cards (NICs) that support full duplex. It also requires that the administrator configure everything for full duplex (or use auto-negotiation which is risky because it's buggy.) Hope that helps. Priscilla Thank you in advance.

Cisco 7960 phones and full duplex [7:8989]
I haven't been around much lately or had time to read much, but I still like to post odd tid-bits that I run into. Cisco 7960 IP phones (probably all of the 79xx line) can run 100mbit full-duplex. However, they will not run full-duplex on a Catalyst 4006 48-port inline power blades *if* you set the port to 100/full, disabling auto-negotiation. Does this occur with other switches? No time to troubleshoot it. What I did observe is that the switch will report a duplex mismatch, and the phone itself will show running half-duplex. However, simply setting the Cat4K port back to speed auto allows the phone to run 100/full (most be something in its limited capacity where it must negotiate, and if it doesn't it just falls back to half-duplex). Here's a Cisco URL confirming they run 100/full (which is what prompted me to set it back to auto): http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_ipphon/7900/admingd/7900set.htm TTFN, Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=8989t=8989 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
2600 Ethernet Full Duplex [7:8608]
I finally found a single reference after a *lot* of searching on CCO that indicates in 12.0(4)T, full duplex capability was added to ethernet interfaces on the 2600 and 3600 platforms. I found this in a list of caveats that mentioned a situation where this would not work even though it was supposed to. I found no other reference anywhere that mentioned this was possible. This actually makes me pretty happy because I upgraded a 2611 a while back and it would help us out greatly if those ports could do full duplex. To the person who pointed this out, I thank you!

10mbit full duplex? [7:6176]
(Trying yet again, this time from the web interface): I think my posts are being eaten (usually they show up right away), and perhaps Paul has a filter on the word Test (but I doubt it as there seems to be a number of those posts). Anyway, I was setting the 2610 back to half-duplex, then got distracted before I could set the Catalyst back (it was still on full-duplex) and received this error on the 2610 when I returned: May 28 20:18:46.243 PDT: %AMDP2_FE-5-LATECOLL: Ethernet0/0 transmit error Drawing from this, I'm guessing somehow the 2610 e0/0 was really running full-duplex before. Here's the original post (which doesn't look like it ever made it): Odd situation that I'm dinking around with in my lab (actually stalling from getting on with the real IDS lab I should be working on). 2610 router with a 10mbit ethernet port connected to a Catalyst 3524 10/100mbit port. I've configured both sides for 10mbit and full-duplex and brought them out of no shut mode at the same time, cleared counters, and then started up a 100K packets, 1450 bit size, 0 second timeout from another 10mbit router (1605R) also connected to the Catalyst (only running 10/half, though).

Re: Full duplex and a hub
Never seen that on a hub (hubs should of course not work with duplex) However, I have seen this 'faking full-duplex' in other situations. Lights on the switch (and the routers) indicated full duplex but data transfers (in different directions at the same time) seemed slow. I cleared the counters on the interfaces then inititiated massive transfers in both directions. This was to see if any collisions showed up in "sh int" (indicating that the full-duplex lights were 'full of it' [to use a tech term]). The collision count soared. Cisco confirmed that this was an effective (albeit screwy) way to confirm duplex status (or the lack thereof) notwithstanding the status lights. Although that test is not IOS-independent, it should work. My cure was to upgrade the IOS on the routers.

In most technical discussions, what we mean by an Ethernet hub is a multiport repeater. If the 3Com device were defined as a multiport repeater, what you say would be completely true. Unfortunately, different vendors use "hub" in different ways. Cisco, actually, has been cleaner than most. When Cisco puts a capability into a "hub" that flatly is beyond the functionality of a multiport repeater, they tend to identify that as a distinct function, and often put that on a separate module. A good example of that is speed switching. Cabletron, as an example, tends to define "hub" as a shelf into which repeater, bridge/LAN switch, and router modules can plug. I can't say they strictly are wrong to do so, because there is no standard definition of hub. Their definition is more a logical one that it is a hubbing point for wiring, rather than phrased in terms of what happens to the bits on the wire.

Re: Full duplex and a hub
Indeed, 3COM has a product called "full-duplex repeater" (what a name...). This is actually a hybrid of a switch and a repeater: it uses buffering of incoming frames and a round-robin method of forwarding them to all egress ports. However, my question concerns the common device -- no buffering. How can the port controller on cisco claim it is in full-duplex while it is in half? Is it possible that 3COM "emulates" full-duplex during autonegotiation, and, if yes, what for? == ""Howard C.

Re: Serial port Full Duplex or Half duplex?
Hi, Best look at Full Duplex and what it means. I think either could be a more appropriate answer. Depending on the device connecting to the serial port. Most devices you connect to a V.35 interface will indeed run at full duplex. Dulpex is not an ethernet thing but a comms thing that allows a connection to transmit on one cct and receive on another. It might use some form of modulation to separate one cct from another or could use a 4 wire connection as in ethernet as long as both circuits are separated.

Re: Serial port Full Duplex or Half duplex?
Kiran, It depends on the protocol that you run over the serial interface. By default, synchronous serial interfaces operate in full-duplex mode . However, the usage of certain protocols changes that default to half-duplex. More info here: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/inter_c/icserint.htm Keep in mind that the V.35 interface is relatively low speed (up to 48Kbps) and is recommended for use with packet networks rather than cell-switched networks (Frame-Relay, SMDS rather than ATM) so checking out he HSSI info won't do you much good.

Re: Full Duplex
To complicate things more, doesn't it really transmit at about 125 mbs in both directions at the physical layer... but with the 4/5 encoding you only end up seeing 100 mbs being transferred in each direction. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2001 4:52 PM Subject: Re: Full Duplex Yes, you can certainly get more than 100mb total throughput, if you add the two directions together.

Re: Full Duplex
You can argue about semantics all day long but what matters is the actual performance difference when running full-duplex. I was troubleshooting why my LTO tape drive wasn't performing as promised. While investigation I noticed a large number of collisions on a port on a 3524 ( a port connecting another switch, backup traffic was going from one switch to the other). I manually set the duplex to full - all collisions stopped and my backups improved tremendously! Cisco recommends running ports in a full-duplex mode especially in server farms. ex. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/so/neso/lnso/lnmnso/fesol_wp.htm ""AndyD"" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 9726tq$fj7$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:9726tq$fj7$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Re: Full Duplex
Hi, It depends where you measure it. If you measure a send to a receive the you only get 100Mb but if you measure both circuits the you can see 200Mb. 100Mb (A B) + 100Mb (B A) they are different circuits physically they come together at the interface (NIC or whatever) then into the box.

Practically does it mean i shud get 2Mbps Transmit 2Mbps Receive traffic simultaneously? if so, at peak traffic (both trans recv) what will be the effect on speed of data transfer, in case if point A is an ISP point B is its customer(for internet usage).

Re: Full Duplex
Hi, Basically full duplex you have a circuit from one device to another that has a send path to the remote receive and visa versa. Each path can send data independantly ie both can send and receive at the same time. In a Half duplex the signal is sent on the same path from both ends when one end is sending the other end must listen and cannot send. Both send and receive use the same path. Full duplex is usually 4 wires half can be 2 wires. Hope this helps Teunis Hobart, Tasmania Australia On Wednesday, February 21, 2001 at 11:05:59 AM, Network Operations wrote: Hello friends, What does a FULL Duplex link exactly imply?

Re: Full Duplex
Yes. You'll get 2M Transmit 2M REceive(4M) between AB with full duplex. With half duplex transfer rate is poor, it is about 1M or less. You can imply full duplex only with switch, or just host to host link. With hub, you can only use half duplex , because each station must detect collision before transfer, full duplex doesn't detect collision(There is no collision with full duplex). _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
full duplex and port speed not configuring
Hi Group, We recently moved one our Management Station - UniX box ( its a Netview box) from 4th to 5th floor. I have connected it to a CAT55 switch. When it was coonected to a Cat55 switch previously , it was operating in full duplex 100mbps. But when i moved it yesterday to another switch port also a CAT 55, the port just doesnt reconfigure to full duplex , 100 Mbps. I manually tried to configure at the switch port. When i try to do it, the port gets disconnected. I have maintained the same vlan, just that its now connected to a different cat55 in another floor. Any thoughts why this happens? I cant get the port up and down, because this is a management station and , once it is up it will send 1000's of pages. So i have to make sure what i do is right. Strange thing is htat, I moved to more unix boxes, and they dont seem to have this proble,\m. I am sure that the unix bozx is configured for full duplex, since it was previosuly operating in full duplex mode. Thanks in advance for any inputs Regards Gayathri _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: full duplex and port speed not configuring
Hi, Check the card in your switch and ensure it supports the speed you are trying. Some Unix boxes do not like to be hard configured others require it. Ensure both the old port and the new port look exactly the same. Also secure ports will give this result. Just some thoughts.

RE: Is TDM full duplex or half duplex
Half/full duplexing goes back much further. Half duplex implies a shared media. Often only one can speak at a time. A good analogy would be radio communication where when one is done speaking they use a key word such as "over" to indicate that the other may speak. With full duplex both can simultaneously transmit. In telephony this often referred to a four wire circuit where the two wire circuit went to a hybrid coil circuit that converted it to four wire. Two for transmit, two for receive. Analog can amplify in one direction only - thus the need for four wire circuits for interoffice trunking. The next step is to modulate voice traffic with different carrier frequencies and multiplex the sum over the same four wires. The good news is that many calls can share the same wires. The bad news is that the amplifiers can't tell the difference between signal and noise. So long circuits have increased noise. The solution to noise was to digitize the signal and periodically regenerate it. Anything below a certain threshold is considered noise and is rejected. This was the beginning of TDM, Time Division Multiplexing, aka T-1s. -Original Message- From: Joseph Ezerski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 12:21 PM To: 'Daniel Cotts' Subject: RE: Is TDM full duplex or half duplex Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't duplexing an Ethernet-only concept?

OT: Full-Duplex vs. Half-Duplex
I was just reading Windows 2000 magazine today (hey no flames here) and an interesting thing came up. A reader asked one of the editors why his network performance was so bad on this one machine. Not going into allot of detail here is a quote from the editor's answer: "A second possibility is that the network adapter is defaulting to full-duplex mode instead of half-duplex mode. Often, enabling full-duplex mode on adapters-even when the network configuration (i.e., switches or NICs) supports it-actually reduces performance." Now maybe I don't know something here, but does this sound like a good answer to you? Full-duplex should provide more bandwidth if configured properly. Wouldn't it be more proactive to try and fix whatever the problem is (if it is the problem) with full-duplex, than switch to half-duplex?

RE: Full-duplex operations
I remember coming across a knowledge base article on Microsoft's site that indicated poor performance with NICs set to full duplex was because Windows NT didn't support full-duplex operation. This was one of those cases where when the Microsoft Help Desk tech had the client change the client's full-duplex settings to half-duplex, and the PC's performance increased drastically, an incorrect assumption was made. I found this article when my husband indicated he was experiencing poor performance at work with a new network card in their server. I gave him the knowledge base article - and it fixed his problem. For many months, I didn't realize the knowledge base article was in error. Windows NT DID support full-duplex, and the driver he was using WAS full-duplex capable. My husband was just plugged into a hub, rather than a switch - and as you know, full-duplex on a hub will NEVER work. Voila. A little more knowledge, and the true cause of the problem was found. If the aut! hors of the book (OR... perhaps it was something the EDITOR added) saw this knowledge base article, they accepted it as fact and didn't fully understand that Microsoft misunderstood the problem. DON'T for a second blame Microsoft for having incorrect information in their knowledge base. There's just as many Cisco "gurus" who don't understand enough about Microsoft's products to be able to draw correct inferences about why something isn't working properly. The best understandings of how things work is when you have enough information to see the whole picture - not just one side (Cisco / Microsoft). Anyhow, I digress. Here's another possibility as to where this myth started: Q217305 - Full Duplex Support with Windows NT http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q217/3/05.ASP?LN=EN-USSD=gnFR=0 -- Leigh Anne -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mike Peterson Sent: Monday, September 25, 2000 7:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Full-duplex operations Hi all, By studying the Book : CISCO LAN SWITCHING by Kennedy Clark I found this NOTE on Chapter 1 page 15 :" Windows NT4.0 does not support FULL-DUPLEX operations because of drivers limitations.Some SUN workstations can also experience this, expecialy with Gigabit Ethernet."

RE: Full-duplex operations
I believe we have had this discussion in a slightly different form in the past. There have been numerous problems with NIC's of all sort, full duplex, half duplex, auto-negotiate, etc and their ability to connect to Cisco switches. I believe that most of these problems have been corrected with either newer NIC's or NIC driver upgrades. I myself have run Windows NT servers full duplex dating back to NT 3.51, both on Compaq servers and on Dell PC's with NT server installed over the original OS. Having run into mistaken beliefs along these lines in several places, and coming from folks with impeccable credentials, and having acted this way myself at times, I tend to believe that most of us in general learn something from experience, file it away, and never revisit it. That's why you will read in some places that IGRP has a max diameter of 100 hops, why you should never use weighted fair queueing with frame relay, and why 3Com 3C509 NIC's will not function when plugged into a Cisco Cat 5000 switch. All of these things were true at one time, or under certain circumstances. They are no longer true. The statement in the book is not correct in and of itself. But one needs be aware that with older NIC's, and older NIC drivers, that there have been problems with Cisco switches. And yes I point to Cisco in particular, because in my case, the 3Com 3C509's worked just fine in an HP switch ( the one OEM'd by Kalperna - HP2916? - which eventually was bought by Cisco ) but did not work at all in a Cisco Cat 5000. On the other hand, 3Com 3C905's worked just fine in the Cat. So I labored for a couple of years under the assumption that the 3C509 did not work. I am told that it does now, using recent drivers.
