The alternative way to using sudo and nano under terminal is to right click on the kext and 'show content'. Then explore to the correct info.plist and drag it to the desktop and edit it with the text editor (under application, utility). Save the changes then drag it back into the correct location in the kext folder. The system will ask you for your password.

Finally, after doing the two edits, go to disk utility and do a fix permission on the drive. I am not sure if you need to refresh the kextcache but it won't hurt.

I think that's some f***ed up permission that killed my previous osx install. So be carefull :(

 

I'm not sure I know what you mean?

 

 

thrunner: Okay I'll try that. How do I make a backup of my current install? and how can it be restored if needed?

 

Why can't some just PM me with a working config.. *hint* *hint*

I think I'm getting close...

 

I have done all you guys said to do. So far no kernal panics. But I keep getting this error:

 

System extension cannot be used

 

The system extention "/System/Library/Extentions/AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleAzaliaController.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update.

 

I have a feeling that once I solve this error I'll have sound. Here's that info.plist

Can you guy see any problems?

Well I have solved the error by changing

 

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>

<string>0x27d88086</string>

 

back to

 

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>

<string>0x26688086</string>

 

But I still don't have any sound. I think the kext is not even loading. In the system profiler under SOFTWARE >> EXTENTIONS I never see AppleAzaliaAudio.kext in that list. I saw the AppleHDA.kext when it was on the system in that list. If anyone who has the sound working check there system profiler and see if the azalia kext is loaded. If I can't get this to work, does anyone know if a sound device that'll work with this OS?

YAY!!! I HAVE SOUND!!! I just replaced the old azalia.kext with the un-edited one from 10.4.5 which I backed up before I started screwing around. Repaired permissions, refreshed the kext cache and restarted. But I noticed now the azalia.kext is not in the system profiler. It wasn't before. But you know, in the profiler it still says that I don't have any built in sound. I probibly had it the whole time because that what I was checking :(. Anyways, thank you all for your help!
