NevadaDave Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I have installed a JaS 10.4.6 DVD multiple times in th past few days in an effort to resolve the lack of sound in my Dell D620. I made a codec dump, using Linux, of the Sigmatel sound card on mysystem, ran the Apple HDA patcher with that codec text, and every time I try to use it, I get a kernal panic at reboot, and the only way I know of to recover is to re-install the OSX system. This is very time-consuming and frustrating. FWIW, Ubuntu 11.04 installs and runs with the onboard sound with no problems (as does Win XP - I have a triple-boot setup right now). When I select the Mac OS in GRUB, it always starts in verbose mode, and I cannot seem to change that. AT any rate - what specific information can I post that would help someone tell me how to recover from this situation? All I can see is that the panic seems to be cause by the AppleHDAController, and obviously it was the result of me trying to patch the AppleHDA kext with my codec information. So far, I've asked 4 questions about sound/installation issues on this website, and received no answers. Is this because the problems I'm having are unusual, or are a bunch of wizards on vacation? ;-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/276560-i-really-need-help-with-d620-soundkernel-panic/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
NevadaDave Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 I really need help with this - I finally got a USB wifi dongle working, so sound is the last barrier to overcome. Is there a wizard out there who can help?
