I always thought that the dual processor support came with UniNorth chip 
revision 7. I implied that the Uni-N chip is therefor responsible for the dual 
processor function.

Maybe I'm wrong.
Do you have any source for further reading?


BTW I have two Power Mac G4 AGP 400 MHz that have Uni-N revision 7 and I 
successfully ran Dual-450 MHz processors from a G4 GE in them. I couldn't find 
out if every G4 AGP has Uni-N revision 7 or if I was just lucky to get the 
right ones.
