Default New Dual 800\'s work, when (if ever) will my Dual 533?

Now that some daring soul has jumped into a Dual 800 G4 and successfully run their Protools rig WITH BOTH PROCESSORS ON (he posted his success here in the DUC), I must pose the question ONCE AGAIN to Digi: WHEN WILL YOU GUYS FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE DUAL 533'S (-6042 errors with NO AUDIO in the session)? I hate to permanantly trash my second processor and the power my Unity DS-1 (as well as Logic, Photoshop, Premiere etc) MIGHT have taken advantage of.
ANY RESPONCE FROM DIGI WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. Before anyone from Digi responds: I DON'T WANT TO BE ASKED WHAT MY SETUP IS AND IF I TRASHED THE DIGI PREFS! Just ask someone who knows the issue with the dual 533's when (if ever) it will be fixed.
Sorry for the screaming, I'm just venting (and wishing for a response).

Tim

This is probably due to that the new Dual 800 ships with Mac oS 9.2 and even 9.2.1 now. Apple has probably changed the Multiple processor extention in this OS version since 9.1. We will get 9.2 for older machines when Mac OS X 10.1 ships in september.

The Mac OS 9.2.1 update is for BOTH computers with Mac OS 9.2 installed AND Mac OS 9.1.

Anyone do the 9.1 to 9.2.1 upgrade? How about anyone with the dual 533 problem that upgraded to 9.2.1 and can say it fixed the problem?

The Multiprocessor extension have been updated from v 2.7 (in 9.1) to v 3.3 (9.2.1). This has probably something to do with Dual 800´s being able to run with both processors enabled.

If anyone has installed 9.2 on a DP 533, please post results. I'm desperate to get this DP thing working with PT/logic. Any info would be very gratefully recieved.

Had the Dual 800 looping with "scroll on playback" for about 7 hours today. Not a single glitch. Using 9.2.1.
