Hello, guys! Everybody's fine?

I've been trying these days the dsdt way aiming at get rid of the most legacy kexts i can. For a couple of days now, i've been unsuccessfully trying to make AppleHDA load with my ALC 269 so i can stop using VoodooHDA.

Tried some methods for AppleHDA patching i learnt here on insanelymac and elsewhere. Tried also a lot of already patched HDAs with and without dsdt edits. Finally, i tried the command line autopatch tool available at this subforum. All of them resulted in absolutely no success.

I confess that i couldn't follow one step that now i'm thinking that should be crucial to get the work done: the Linux CodecDump, since i don't use Linux (or Windows, by the way). Could it be indeed the cause of my failure? Is there any alternative around?

I'll attach my patched dsdt, so if someone has time and wan't to check it out, maybe helps me in finding something.

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi, artur-pt!

So i'm completely lost here. What a difficult thing to fix! I think i need an alternative to Linux Codec Dump, since it's the only step i'm missing. Tried to find something in google, surely i need to do a better research on this if i don't want to be stuck here.

Thank you very much indeed.

P.S.: This info i found on my everest report (the one i made before installing OSX on my netbook, some months ago):


High Definition Audio:
      codec name                                  Realtek ALC269
      codec  id                                       10EC0269h / 104383CEh
      CODEC  rev                                  00100004h

Also:


[ Realtek ALC269 ]

    Device properties:
      device                          Realtek ALC269
      device description (Windows)                Realtek High Definition Audio
      device type                                            Audio
      bus type                                                 HDAUDIO
      device identification                              10EC-0269
      Subsystem ID                                        1043-83CE

      Hardware ID                                         HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0269&SUBSYS_104383CE&REV_1000

Can this help me somehow?

Nevermind, i just created an Ubuntu live USB and created my own codec dump (will attach here).

I'll try once more to patch AppleHDA and will report back here. Thank you!

Well, failed again.

I simply can't understand what i'm doing wrong...

Thank you!
