OldSkoolGamer Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Anyone heard from EdFlyer in a while ? He was gonna try to fix the external amp problem when he got some free time, guess it didn't happen. I'm about to d/l xcode, the kext source from this thread & try some experimenting, I haven't got anything to lose as video isn't supported either (x200).

mchouin Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Has anyone figured out how to prevent iTunes from stopping at random times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gehaktbal Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Has anyone figured out how to prevent iTunes from stopping at random times? You are using the 10.4.8 kernel right? Its important that you enter the right FSB in your boot.plist. It did solve my problemens with latency and random stops. Also, you can try to lower your system and iTunes volume and crank up the volume of your speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchouin Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Nope, im using 10.4.6...what do u mean enter the FSB into boot.plist? im kind of a noob so ull need to go step by step Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prasys Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Having the same problem as mchouin I will mess with the kext again , since I got my COMPAQ to work. now to install XP ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdFlyer Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Sorry I haven't been around in a while, part of the problem with being a Software major is that, software classes like to eat away all your free time. Hopefully soon I'll be able to take a crack at it one more time as it seems that they have a patch for the MSI In linux, so if I can find out where that was done and what was changed then I can possibly integrate that and get the rest of our laptops working. One of my friends downloaded os x and used this audio driver on his amd x2 rig so it does work for the lucky ones. -Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdFlyer Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Sorry to say this guys, but the patch for MSI laptops happens to be a different issue than what I've got going. I finally found that I have sound working, it just mad quiet. I changed the output to the headphone line and connected external speakers on my Gateway 7515gx laptop and turned my speakers all the way up and I can hear sound very quietly. When I apply the patch for the MSI laptops in my code, I get absolutely no sound at all. It is frustrating, and the linux source code doesn't seem to say anything more specific.

That's the same issue I have as well, but with Ubuntu or Kubuntu I just turn off the external amp in Alsa Mixer & sound works every other reboot, I did find a tip the other day about blacklisting the ATIIXP Modem driver for ubuntu & now sound works every time with no further issues.

EdFlyer Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 i was thinking, and possibly i could post the MSI patch, and then I could see if it works for the MSI people, and then they get to be happy, and I still deal with the MSI issue. Let me know if you want to test. (it doesn't like my hardware and likes to crash it after i do some messing with the volume.) I'm gonna download a couple distros and load up linux on one partition and do some experimentation to see what's up. aight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bored Badger Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 (edited) Great work everyone. Thought I'd share my kext, modded to work for the Toshiba Equium A60-155. It should also work for the toshiba satellite a60-155 too, but not sure if it will though, the Equium is the european version of that machine. Load the AppleAC97AudioATIIXP n ur good to go Tested on JaS 10.4.7. Oh will also work with anyone with the device id: 0x43411002 meh, save you 2 seconds of editing lol.

Maybe someone besides me with some more time on their hands can continue working on the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe someone besides me with some more time on their hands can continue working on the driver. Ed>> I know. I've been following the project since the beginning. If only my programming skills were up to par. It's a shame, that input is part of an increasingly small list of things I need Windows for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racko Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 (edited) Does anyone know, why iTunes with this driver stops playing in a while? It's like that: I listen to a few songs, after like 20 minutes of listening, the music get very low quality sound. If I put my notebook to sleep, and after few seconds, I wake it up music plays normal. Help, please. Edited January 26, 2007 by Racko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
