I don't use any dsdt.aml on this machine

Try this patching app

 DSDT_Patcher_Linux_Mac_Win.zip   3.05MB   182 downloads

running windows (if you have it installed). Run "DSDT Auto-Patcher.jar".

Do following steps: Extract DSDT from System (yes) - left dropdown (Generic) - Apply. Now you must have a very basic dsdt.aml (maybe in same path as .jar but I don't remember). Save that dsdt.aml to your E/E folder in OSX and edit your org.chameleon.Boot.plist with

<key>DSDT</key>
<string>/Extra/dsdt.aml</string>

restart and tell me what happens

update!!!

copied kext on /System/library/extension
chmod -R 755 kXAudioDriver.kext/
chown -R root:wheel kXAudioDriver.kext/
kextload kXAudioDriver.kext/

Work on my system!!!

Hi all I have my Audigy 2 ZS PCI working in Lion.

But one question about the post quoted above... What the heck does "copied kext on /S/L/E mean? Is it supposed to say "Copy kext TO S/L/E?" (the kext was already at this location after I ran the installer package in my case...) I want to clarify in case somebody else is confused with it... (I did not need to do this step btw... it worked fine right after the package install.)

Thx

Edit... I just realized that I don't have any input options... Has anybody figured this out?

I'm testing this basic dsdt.aml but it seems to have no effect. :'(

Without reading 40 pages, anyone know if this enabled digital out on these? I want to hook one of these to my receiver either through optical, or the coax digital input.

Thanks!

Hello guys,

I`ve done all the steps,, but didn`t work with Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 7.1 Sb0570
Lion 10.7.1

Is there any chance to find driver for this ??

Thanks in advance

Hi Guys! I use the EMU 0404 Card, I have done for since Leopard 10.5. Its a great card! Ok so I know that every time you restart you have no sound! Until you type in edspctrl into the terminal. This is a real pain!

In order to upload FPGA firmware after reboot, open Terminal and type 'edspctrl'

Here is a small LaunchAgents script to get round this problem! No more typing into the terminal on reboot, or sleep!

Just download the attached file and drop it in /System/Library/LaunchAgents and reboot!

(NOT /Users/YOUNAME/Library/LaunchAgents)

Now you have sound after reboot and sleep WITHOUT typing edspctrl into the terminal all the time!

Works in Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion.

A quick thanks for the fix from post 1... 5.1 sound with Audigy2 ZS, HD5870, Lion 10.7.2 (a Tonymacx86 install , but his fix worked for me).

[litania72]

Hi All,

thanks for this; Audigy 2 ZS working in 'output' but unfortunately no 'input' and so no microphone......anybody has any idea why?

thanks in advance for your hard work

Forgot to mention that I have installed the lot by using the dmg file; it installed kxmanager and kxac97 but both are not working....open and close..

thanks

Hey Guys!

kX works well with Audigy 1 24/48, but i use 96k files as well.

Is there any support for 24/96 playback with Audigy 2? It would be the cheapest and most common card to use.
If the Audigy 2 does not support 24/96 please suggest a card from the list.

thanks in advance

Hello, all. my dell xps 420 hackintosh been running great. i was using voodoo HDA to get the audio working.
I would like to use the optical out so i can get 5.1 sound.

i tried using the kX Driver for OS X 1.11b0 and 1.3b0. both of which doesn't even show up under audio in preference.

my dell configuration listed the integrated audio as "Integrated Sound Blaster Audigy HD Software Edition", i'm not sure which it is audigy 2?

any help on this would gladly appreciated.

i'm on lion 10.7.2 btw

[Kimiko]

This driver is incomplete and has not input enabled. Anybody knows how to get the mic working? Unfortunately my onboard sound card is dead completely fried and then, I can't use it. Help me, please.

The software edition of the "audigy" is just some software settings (dll's and such) to support some of the functions of Creative cards in software instead of hardware. It will not work with this driver. sorry.

Also (on a side note), This driver works on Mt Lion 10.8 DP1 the same as it does in 10.7.2 and 10.7.3.

Ok so I'm relatively new to the whole Hackintosh scene and this is the first hackintosh I have made. I have been trying to get a creative sound blaster live! 5.1 EMU10K1-JFF to work but have been unsuccessful so far I am running OSX 10.7 (Lion) and have installed kXAudioDriver-1.11b0 and then entered the following in terminal:

chmod -R 755 /system/library/extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext/
chown -R root:wheel /system/library/extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext/
kextload /system/library/extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext/

I even tried:

kextunload /system/library/extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext/
kextload /system/library/extensions/kXAudioDriver.kext/

But it didnt work either The sound card doesnt show up in the Sound (System Preferences), Audio MIDI Setup or System information

If anybody has any suggestions then please let me know. Thanks
