This is probably asked all the time, etc., etc., etc., but I just
started using 386/ix and Xenix 386, so I haven't been following these
newsgroups. Which 386 and/or 387 processors have bugs? I have a very
simple floating point program which produces varying incorrect results
under both 386/ix and Xenix, so I suspect my hardware, which is a
Compaq 386/25 with the following identification on the chips:
80386: A80386DX-25
L8281253
(m)(c)i '85 '86
and two sigmas in the lower right corner
80387: A80387-25
8X106
L8300722
(m)(c) INTEL '86
82385: A82385-25 (B)
SZ121
L8271301
(m)(c) INTEL '87
If these chips are hosed, which ones should I get? Thanks.
