Intel chip glitch hobbles server advance

Intel and server partners plan to launch the "Nocona" version of the Xeon processor for dual-processor servers on Monday, but a supporting chip called "Lindenhurst" that handles input-output chores has a flaw that in rare circumstances can cripple the computer, sources said Thursday. The problem means Intel will recommend against using adapter cards that plug into servers with the new PCI Express communications technology.

 

The problem is expected to be fixed in an updated version of Lindenhurst arriving in the fourth quarter, sources said. Meanwhile, customers thinking of buying the new servers--the first with Intel chips that support 64-bit extensions--will be able to use the older PCI-X input-output slots or use adapters that have been certified not to be affected by the glitch.
