PainWarlock Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 thats a hard question i dnt think alsa will be ported that well to darwin ppl could try i searched on google it seems to be in beta stage alsa is a very wide range audio system depending on different audio codecs than darwin i think audio card support would go down if it was supported in darwin Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147437-alsa-linux-to-darwin-why-not/#findComment-1045934 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 linux is not MacOSX and driver porting is impossible. We can only understand how the linux driver works and then write new MacOSX driver from initial.

Napster Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 As you know, almost the things they are having to patch AppleHDA are all about codec/layout/node/verb which is solved already in ALSA driver. Anyways, any1 has info about VoodooHDA? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147437-alsa-linux-to-darwin-why-not/#findComment-1107593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
