i have the same motherboard but when i try i see "No output devices found"

 

here is what i did:

1. install fresh lion

2. [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] -system utilities -ALC8xxHDA -AppleHDA Rollback -ALC887/888b

3. without rebooting use kext wizard to install ALC887vdHDA_6Ch_RMic_SPDIF.kext and repair and rebuild

4. reboot, no sound

 

can anyone tell me if i am doing anything wrong? do i need to install something or do something different?

 

please and thanks

 

You're lucky I've test Lion and without HDADisabler I've no way to get the kernel launch. The simple thing to do is testing different AppleHDA versions (the one from your SL disk, 10.6.2...), perhaps you're experiencing the problem I've had with SL.

Btw Voodoohda have serious problem ( sound far from perfect and Kernel panic sometimes) but I'm sure it will be solve soon.

ALCxxHDA.kext and ALC887...kext could be in conflict. They are trying to do the same thing. Try deleting ALCxxHDA.kext and then run [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] -system utilities and then restart.

After months of reading threads, finally I've find out the solution for ALC887 on Asus 775 MB. I've changed a little the good guide by rafirafi to make AppleHDA 1.7.9 function on P5P43TD-PRO:

 

1/

Install AppleHDA.kext 1.7.9 AppleHDA.kext.zip on S/L/E

 

2/

DSDT: if there is no HDEF device in your DSDT, we need to add it.

-Get DSDTSE

-Extract your bios, this will give you an dsdt.dsl file.

 

There are 3 sections we need to change:

A/

- Add Method (DTGP, 5, NotSerialized)

- Choose DTGP in DSDT Hack in DSDTSE and follow the instructions

- Try to compile the bios to check if you did the thing correctly

 

B/

into the Method (_L0D, 0, NotSerialized), with the other notify add:

 

Notify (\_SB.PCI0.HDEF, 0x02)

 

C/

Add an HDEF Section under the PCI0 device (put it at the end of this section you'll be sure to not damage the rest)

 

Device (HDEF)
           {
               Name (_ADR, 0x001B0000)
               OperationRegion (HDCS, PCI_Config, Zero, 0x60)
               Field (HDCS, DWordAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
               {
                   VID0,   16, 
                   DID0,   16, 
                           Offset (0x4C), 
                   DCKA,   1,

                   })
               }

               Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
               {
                   Store (Package (0x0E)

                           }, 

                           "MaximumBootBeepVolume", 
                           Buffer (One)
                           {

                           {
                               0x00
                           }

                   Return (Local0)
               }
           }

 

 

3/

Put LegacyHDA_ALC887.kext LegacyHDA_ALC887.kext.zip in Extra/Extensions and repair permissions on E/E and S/L/E.

 

4/

reboot. Once rebooted check on System/Preferences/Sound if the output is set to "line-out". Otherwise you won't hear any sound.

It doesn't work on my P5P41C (ALC887). Volume changer appears, I select line out then I hear one scratch when changing the volume for the first time and then - no sound.

Are you sure you have ALC887/888b and not standard ALC887 ?

If you don't have alc887/888b it will not work for you. You can use voodoohda or wait till someone (with the same motherboard, not my case) figure out how to change the kext which should be possible as you heard scratch.

I installed the AppleHDA.kext in S / L / E with kext utility

with dsdt put in Extra folder.

Finally moved to LegacyHDA_ALC887 Extra folder.

I repair permissions after reset the pc and now it appears:

Nothing to do with the audio, you've got a problem with the firewire, my guess is you install kexts improperly or something else is wrong in your dsdt.

Booting in safe mode and repair permission via disk utility could help.

If you have a problem with the dsdt you should use HDAEnabler instead.

Anyone manage to get this working on Lion 10.7.2? Thx

 

 

Update1: I managed to get this working (ALC887) on Asus P8H67 using your kext. Thanks a lot. Steps I did is loading ALC887vdHDA_6Ch_RMic_SPDIF.kext using Kext utility, then using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] System Utilities+AppleHdaRollback+Non-DST HDA Enabler (ALC887+888B only select this). Reboot. Everything works like a charm
