try one of this http://diabolik1605.com/DHF/Taruga/Leopard%20Kexts/

install with "kext helper"

 

Tried the last one ALC888s one, but not working (frontpanel headphone port) :(

 

No audio devices found, and I get a kernel panic on shutdown.

This was the thread that finally got me going.

What was my issue in the end is I did not have AppleHDA installed.

 

I had tried every driver and every possibility beforehand and that is what finally worked.

 

 

As far as your kernel panic issue, are you sure it's related to your audio issue? I would suspect that your issue may be something else. But only one way to find out, get audio working correctly.

 

I'm a noob to mac, but I do have a general understand of computer hardware and association with software since I'm a pc tech. I'll see if I can help as much as possible.

Which files should I install from the link posted here by you?

Please help, new here ;)

I used KextHelper (which I had to download) and one of the links on that page for the AppleHDA.kext

 

I'm too inebriated right now to research it again. If you still need help by tomorrow I will be able to help you more.

Got it working! :)

 

Used ALC_888 Package inside even though mine is ALC888s.

 

 

Front panel is working on my HP Slimline S3407! Haven't tested speaker port, but assuming it will work! Thanks! ;)
