ArthurKK Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Hello, the past 2 days were spent trying countless ways to install may sound card. I tried VoodooHDA, different versions and architectures. AppleHDA(HDAPatcher doesn't work) Azalia in different combinations, by adding my own hex code in plist and so on. Right now I am really confused. Nothing works, somewhere I may have mistaken or the methods and kexts I tried really aren't working with my sound card, I also tried all the above listed kexts in different BIOS configurations (External Codec Only, External+Internal[VoodooHDA panics like that], Front Panel AC97, Front Panel HDA[voodoohda actually sees somethings there, device 0 no pcm channels found]) Right not there's a big mash in my head, I don't from which side to take it. I have a linux codec dump for my VT1708B(attached), what are the following steps: - hex the file - ..... I am lost here, how can I manually create a kext to install and what sould I use, AppleHDA or VoodooHDA. Can someone create that kext file and upload(that would be to easy for me) I think that after I solve this I will try to make a very comprehensive tutorial for my mobo + nVidia GTS250 512DDR3 so that people won't have to go through the headaches that I did/do. Any advice or pointing in a certain direction is helpfull, THANKS A LOT. My configuration is: Running Snow 10.6.2 + test7 kernel on: ASUS M3N78 (specs: http://www.deusxmachina.org/manual.pdf Audio Chipset: VT1708B High Definition Audio 8-channel CODEC (dead, no hope) ) -------------- AMD Athlon x2 Black Edition 7750 2.7GHz AM2+ 3MB Cache -------------- Palit nVidia GTS 250 512MB DDR3 (works with GFX UTIL patch) -------------- 2x2GB GeIL Ultra DDR2 800MHz -------------- Seagate 80GB codec_dump.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArthurKK Posted December 25, 2009 Author Share Posted December 25, 2009 I also have a windows 7 on my other hdd, and although I reseted to default all the BIOS settings, the audio won't work in windows 7 now... the only thing available in W7 is HMDI Audio. So apparently I physically broke me external codec in all my attempts(if that's even possible), that is just great! EDIT: MY windows was stupid, audio works, it must have been confused that I meddled with the BIOS settings, audio works in Windows again EDIT2: MY windows was stupid, audio works, it must have been confused that I meddled with the BIOS settings, audio works in Windows again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
