Crusher21 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hello, I've successfully installed Snow Leopard and now I'm trying to find the proper kext to get the audio to work. I'm a bit new to this kind of stuff. I don't really know how to find out which kext is the one that suits my computer. I've been looking on this website for kexts: http://leopardkext.blogspot.com/p/audio.html. I don't know if this website is legit or not because once again I don't have very much experience with this stuff, but I'm trying to learn more. If someone could help point me in the right direction and tell me how to find out the information needed about my audio card and how that correlates to the kext needed, I would be very grateful. Thank you very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusher21 Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 I installed the VoodooHDA package file from the link in your signature (sourceforge) and restarted my computer but there are still no audio output devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusher21 Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 I'm sorry, I should have given more detail. The laptop is an MSI GT72 2QE Dominator Pro. It uses Realtek audio drivers but I'm not sure how I can figure out specifically which Realtek kext I would need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MXM1190 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Getting the pciid might help you find what you're looking for. Best way to find them is on Linux. The command to do this is lspci -nn. I'd recommend booting from a Linux live CD (distro doesn't really matter) and running the command, because your device might not show up in System Profiler.

0000-1248 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Can be found with a simple Google search (MSI GT72 2QE Dominator Pro Audio Codec). You use ALC 892. Use the clover ALC patch for clover, or download Toleda's realtek drivers from here. Best regards, - Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
