I am also running a Qosmio X500 series. My codec dump looks identical to your. Can you please explain how to use this fix? Can anyone?

 

VoodooHDA doesn't seem to work..

 

Same codec...same problem...same question!

Great! It works on Qosmio X500-10w.

 

Here is a short noob guide:

 

Install AppleHDA.kext with kextsHelper (in /S/L/E, don't work in /EXTRA).

You have to edit DSDT to get it work:

 

1 - download DSDT Auto-Patcher from here and DSDTSE from here.

 

2 - now you have to extract a clean working dsdt.dsl. Remove DSDT.aml from /EXTRA and reboot. Open DSDT Auto-Patcher and After you have applied toshiba qosmio x500 patch, the dsdt.dsl is in Resources\Java (use "show package content" on DSDT Auto-Patcher app).

 

3 - copy dsdt.dsl on desktop

 

4 - open DSDTSE and open your dsdt.dsl on desktop

 

5 - find "Device (HDEF)" using search function (leave out quotes) on the right and replace the text with the content of the file "Device (HDEF) DSDT fix.rtf" in the package. I suggest to convert the rtf to text first.

 

6 - press compile DSDT (you are asked to save first the dsdt) and the new dsdt.aml compiled and working is on your desktop. If there are errors on compilation check { and }.

 

Good luck.

Has anyone tried with AppleHDA 1.9.9?

 

I've been trying with that version for the past few days without success, so if someone has that version working, please post a how-to or the patched binaries, this version is needed for HDMI sound (which I'm able to make it work if someone's interested)

Hi fellow Qosmio X500 users,

 

First thanks a lot to nicheljd for all his hard work in making available a working DSDT for the Qosmio X500 and making the "native" sound work through a patched AppleHDA.kext.

 

I've been trying to make the sound work perfectly on my X500-10V without success so far:

 

- VoodooHDA 2.7.2 works perfectly in terms of sound output through the speakers, volume control, etc....but has a big issue, at least on my laptop - the CPU idles at 5-6% all the time and the performance playing games, processor intensive apps suffers a lot. For instance in Geekbench it drops almost 1000 points!! :|

So I decided against using the VoodooHDA anymore because of the CPU performance drop.

 

- Now I have an almost perfect DSDT working (the one I send attached) originally made by nicheljd that I had to customize (CPU section) in order for it to recognize correctly the 4 cores of my i7 720QM. I send it attached. The only issue with this DSDT was that I still had no sound without VoodooHDA.

 

- So I decided to try to patch my DSDT (HDEF) and use the AppleHDA.kext posted here following the instructions and finally got native working sound without any performance issues like voodoohda, thanks once again to nicheljd.

But still it isn't working perfect (like voodoohda was dismissing cpu usage) and I have these issues:

  • When I restart the laptop or cold boot it, the sound volume always goes to max level so I have to re-adjust it every time;
  • The sound volume function buttons although apparently works OK the volume level bar moves correctly the actual sound volume doesn't adjust accordingly which is really odd!
  • Sometimes theres a delay between adjusting the volume level in the toolbar and the actual sound output.

There's also this file attached by nicheljd named Nodo ID.rtf that has this text on it and I have absolutely no idea in what to make of it.... :huh:

 

Configuracion Nodo ID

 

Mic externo 20+23+26

Mic interno 20+24+30

Speaker 19+16+31

Headphone 19+16+25

LineOut 19+16+27=28=29

SPDIFOut Digital 18+32

Line Out Digital 33+34

 

 

So other than these few glitches it's almost perfect! Anyone thinks that there might be a solution for this or it's just not possible to solve these issues? nicheljd ? :help:

 

Thanks a lot for any opinions on this. I know I'm just a few steps away from having a perfect working super-laptop hackintosh! :weight_lift:
