pcmxa Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 OK Been working on this on and off for about a year now and am close to having a good fully working hackintosh but just can't get the audio fully functional. Has anyone goten all eight outputs to be recognized. Installed iDeneb 10.5.5 with NVinject and the ALC888 Realtek kexts and sleep fix Almost everything worked. Graphics are hardware supported with Quartz Extreme enables. All four cores are recognized and working All drives are recognized and writable The only flaw was the audio was not working. Installed the HDA_ICH9_ALC888 kexts. Nothing Installed AzaliaAudio.pkg (leving the ALCinject and AppleHDA kexts). The line out and line-in features of the card were recognized and I could listen to audio (yeah ), but I want access to all channels. removed the HDA_ICH9_ALC888 kexts and modified AppleAzaliaAudio.kext in the following manner: AUDIO WORKING: To get the audio working you need to remove the AppleAzaliaAudio.kext from /System/Library/Extensions. then edit AppleAzaliaAudio.kext: cd /System/Library/Extensions sudo pico AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/Info.plist find <key>IOHDAudioCodecVendorID</key> ad <string>0x10ec0888</string> CTRL + O to save, then CTRL + X so exit. Finally edit AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAzaliaController.kext/Contents/Info.plist sudo pico AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAzaliaController.kext/Contents/Info.plist Find: <key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key> ad <string>0x293e8086</string> press Ctrl + O to save and then Ctrl + X to exit Clean up the system: sudo diskutil repairpermissions / sudo chown -R root:wheel AppleAzaliaAudio.kext sudo chmod -R 755 AppleAzaliaAudio.kext cd /System/Library sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache This got the HDA output (stereo) to work but no inputs here are the files AzaliaAudio_and_HDA_ICH9_ALC888.zip So my question is, has anyone been able to get all eight channels of the IP35 Pro to be recognized by the OS? If so, could you share how you did it? Thanks PS Also What exactly is appleHDApatcher supposed to do? When I drag dumps onto it, nothing happens. It isn't modifying the appleHDA.kext, so what exactly is supposed to happen?

mvsesa Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Same problem here, with Azalia sound works, but I don't have inputs. So, I'm just wondering if you isntall Azalia, and AppleHDA too, can you listen audio and use the microphone?? Or do you need to modify some lines for avoidyng problems with tose 2 drivers? (Azalia for the outputs, and AppleHDA with ALCInject for inputs??)

pcmxa Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Same problem here, with Azalia sound works, but I don't have inputs.So, I'm just wondering if you isntall Azalia, and AppleHDA too, can you listen audio and use the microphone?? Or do you need to modify some lines for avoidyng problems with tose 2 drivers? (Azalia for the outputs, and AppleHDA with ALCInject for inputs??) Thnxs I got digital out and line out and headphone out along with digital input, line-in and internal mike working by using AppleHDA patcher 1.20 and the attached codec dump (oddly my own codec dump gives and error). This is without AppleAzalia.kext. With AppleAzalia installed I just get the HDaudio out. I still can't get the 8 analog chanels to be recognized. It only finds the one line-out. alc888linuxdump.txt EDIT: I have a codec dump from my IP35 Pro in Kubuntu, it installs, but has the same results as the last one: Line Out (Built in Line Out) Headphones (Built-in Headphone) Digital Out (Built-in digital out) Internal microphone (Built in) Line In (Audio Line In port) Digital in (optical digital in) are all working. Unfortunately there is only the one line out when there should be 4. I am wondering if there is some way of moding the codec dump to get them working. Does anyone know of a commented codec dump that explains what each part is doing?
