Maybe the chipset is not proper detected because being too >new? Seems I stand corrected. I did some Googlle research myself and saw http://www.pcpro.co.uk/?http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/news_story.php?id=59918. I quote: 'With its newly announced 'Nocona' Xeon processors - which clock speeds ranging from 2.8 to 3.6GHz - Intel brings 64-bit memory addressing to its 32-bit server processor. The aim is to provide greater support for the high-level number crunching tasks of the workstation market.' So I guess the question becomes do FC kernels have support for this chip yet?
