Installed osx 10.4.3 dvd with the Maxxuss TPM patch everything works fine!!!(thx Maxxuss)

but no audio anymore !!!!

 

in terminal when i try kextload i get :

 

16IOAC97AudioCodec is not compatible with its superclass, 9IOService superclass changed?

kextload: a link/load error occured for kernel extension AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext

my sound is not working neither, using your method to load 10.4.3. Thanks for your post and of course thanks Maxxuss. B)

my sound used to work under 10.4.1.

 

 

having exact same error when I try kextload.

is that mean AudioAC97Audio.kext is not compatible with 10.4.3 anymore?!

 

check the source on Darwin v8.3 (10.4.3 using v8.3.1)

http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.3/

 

but that AC97Audio-5 is in source code, how to compile this source code? :unsure:

 

please post if anyone have luck with sound in 10.4.3. thanks.

I installed the Xcode 2.2 from the 10.4.3 DVD,

downloaded the AudioAC97-5 source from Apple.

try so hard to compile it, but keep having errors on path, and then errors within AudioAC97 codes.

 

 

not giving up yet, I downloaded the Xcode 2.2 for OSX (PPC),

do the same thing on my powerbook.

lol, more errors during compile, within IntelICH cpp this time.

 

 

need some more help here if anyone can try to compile the Audio driver.

macgirl! YOU ARE MY HERO! it works!!!

I have a perfect system now! :huh:

 

in case anyone need it, at terminal:

sudo -s

<type your password>

cp -R <path>AppleAC97Audio.kext /System/Library/Extensions/

cd /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/

kextload AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext

(at this moment, I got sound working)

rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

 

Reboot, sound works!

thanks for this info -- i was having problems with the kext loading at startup. part of my problems was chown/chmod were not originally run with -R.

I tried this but I get this error

tiger-x86:/System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext/Contents/PlugIns root# sudo kextload AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext

kextload: extension /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext is not authentic (check ownership and permissions)

kextload: extension /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext is not authentic (check ownership and permissions)

 

I logged in sudo but it still didn't work.

i know there's other methods of getting the ac97 kext installed, the one method listed previously in this thread did not work for me, so i used a different method...works for me

 

drag AppleAC97Audio.kext from the source to desktop

click Finder and navigate to System...Library...Extensions folder

drag AppleAC97Audio.kext from desktop to Extensions folder

 

 

 

Finder...Applications...Utilities....

open Terminal

 

type

 

 

sudo -s

<type your password> then press enter

 

chmod -R 755 (you can drag the ac97 kext here from the extensions folder) then press enter

chown -R root:wheel (you can drag the ac97 kext here from the extensions folder) then press enter

diskutil repairPermissions /

 

when complete...X out of terminal and terminate

reboot

 

upon reboot, you should have audio

This method doesn't work on my ULI AC97 intregrated sound card. Am I out of luck?

 

No sound for me with upgrade from macosx86 10.4.1 to 10.4.3

does not work for me on vmware 5 with tiger-x86 10.4.3 (maxxuss patched)...

I used both methods above using the compiled kext graciously given by Macgirl, but on a vmware 5 loaded with 10.4.3 doesnt give me sound still...

still only sound output with my d915gevl. The board has "Intel® High Definition Audio subsystem using the Realtek ALC860 audio codec*" I installed native with patched DVD. same with 10.4.1 and 10.4.3 as well. Only used the orig. kexkt (10.4.3) and the one in maxxus' dvd-patcher (10.4.3). then I tried with the kexkt from macgirl - still no input.

Will try Bios update ...

Thanks for the kext. I guess it is only 50% working for me because I only get sound out of the Left speaker. I haven't tested input yet. Does anyone else have this problem? Any known workaround for this?

 

Note: it also did this in 10.4.1

Your Sound chip uses the Azalia kext not the AC97.

 

 

macgirl would you happen to know how to get sound from an azalia sound card? my m/b is an asus p5gl-mx model and the sound card is identified as azalia on the bios enable/disable option. osx lists it as hd audio but no sound comes out of the speakers. any help would be very much appreciated. specifically it's an Analog Devices Soundmax ADS1986a sound card. vender id = 8086 and device id = 2668

 

thanks!
