Yes you have an ALC888, in fact you even got a different device ID!  
Try searching for an ALC888 driver on the forum, I think it already exists.

I've made a version with spdif RCA (coax) connection in "about this mac", I put it on post#1

iPhoneiac I think this can really solve that issue

Hi Marionez,

There is 3 kext in the zip file.
should I install the 3 ?

Barnum

[marionez]

- choose and download kexts pack for ALC1200
- remove ALCinjector.kext AppleHDA.kext and his friends from /System/Library/Extension
- remove /System/Library/Extension.mkext (this step is not needed at all)
- unpack the zip file
- run kexthelper
- install kexts
- reboot

yes all 3 kexts

I was considering a rear-mic/line-in (with no front mic) version, but maybe the 3 input version is better.

Hello!

This works for me with an Asus P5Q PRO.
Only with all startups I get all kind of Sounds Assertions messages, something like this(copied from other post):

Does someone know how to fix it?

I've got the same:

The very strange thing is that I didn't have this log error 3-4 days ago! So I don't know what's going on.
I read on the forum that SMBIOSResolver could solve this, but I didn't find it...

I made a new version without the ALC1200fix.kext but I still have the error. I attach on post #1.

Asus P5QL PRO is also ALC888 when dumped in linux.

[marionez]

Ok thanks I'll edit first post.

I updated latest kexts, because headphone was missing. Anyone can help?
I think we just have to map properly some nodes!

I made a slim version, with green rear output, front headphones, rear mic, line in and digital output.
It's on post #1
http://www.insanelym...p...st&id=48849

This cause less kernel log errors:
localhost kernel[0]: Sound assertion "0 == fExternalControlArray" failed in "/SourceCache/AppleHDA/AppleHDA-162.1.37/AppleHDA/AppleHDAFunctionGroup.cpp" at line 767 goto Exit

[Dream Sequencer]

add P5QL-E to that list.

i'll soon try the drivers, now i'm with old p45audio drivers

[Slyrfecso]

Hi Marionez!

Nice work, so much to deal with it!
Can you write, what is it new?

Only a few lines from SLIM!


You have a nice day!

[galin Dimitroff]

Slim version is working fine on P5QL-E. I will try the shutdown later.

[marionez]

Ok, about multichannel output I was wrong, read this: http://www.insanelym...showtopic=87336

At this point, I'm not really interested in a multichannel output, because I don't use and so I even have some difficult to test something like this.
I think I'll wait for 10.5.7 update then I'll see what happens

[kayoone]

First of all i want to thank you for your great work, unfortunatly i have some problems with my P5Q Pro.

With the normal driver (your first choice) i get both Output (Front and Rear) Working, with your second choice driver i can only get the Front Out working, no matter what i set in the prefpane.
However, no matter which driver I use, i simply cant get the MIC to work at all, which is a really bummer :/

Hope you can help me.

When reinstalling i delete AppleHDA.kext and HDAEnabler.kext and reinstall the new ones with kexthelper. I then reboot and do a kextload HDAEnabler.kext to get sound Output working, with the problems described above however.

[marionez]

Did you remove ALC1200fix.kext?
I disabled front mic in slim version, but rear mic works (it's the pink input). If on your mobo even rear mic doesn't work (with the slim version) I think you've got an ALC1200 with a different codec dump. So should be useful if you produce one on your own and attach here.
On linux should be something like:
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 > codec.txt

Tested again with garage band, rear mic works with slim version.

[kayoone]

hi there.

Okay, the rear out not working was due to me plugging into the wrong input
The mic also works, but its very very silent...anything like mic boost on osx ?

thx for your help

*edit*
Okay, got the mic now working too. Was a problem with the mic input volume...it changes itself while speaking though, but i think only when being in prefpane.

[savestheday]

If I wasn't already getting married, I'd marry you marionez you just made my HTPC build with the P5N7A-VM complete!  THANK YOU!

[marionez]

Well!

Guys anyone with Vista installed can follow this procedure: http://www.insanelym...howtopic=137188 ?

It would be nice checking verbs from vista with those I have from alsa linux.

I don't have vista installed...

thanks

[rwmanos]

hello realy thanks for this driver

add P5QC in the list too

[ugokind]

Asus P5N7A-VM

it's a alc888.. I tried today your solution.. only ext mic works

I see and can change selection in output panel.. but no sound.

[marionez]

Ok thanks, I changed first post... these alc888 known as alc1200 are quite strange...
