AppleHDA Solution - Work in progress

[gabrielbcn]

get you codec dumps here: http://psykopat.free.fr/apple/AppleHDA/

 

Thanks a lot, ALC882 working perfectly. It doesn't appear in hardware list, but works perfectly anyway.

[JSn1™]

What about an ALC662 Realtek?

[jjduro]

I'm happy it worked with you.

Taruga never posted this alfa driver, so, you are the first to have an ALC861, with screwy subsystem, working.

 

Please, if you do get more good news and breakthroughs tell us about them

Mine's a Sigmatel 9200. Everything but mic input works at first, but the headphone jack stops working if I put my laptop to sleep and then wake it up. Any help?

 

@ yang08: what version OS/kernel are you using?

 

for my Sigmatel 9200 I got it to work thanks to taruga's patcher 1.15 AND changing the kernel to MacNubs kernel via:

 

- Install new kernel following this: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=48961

Download http://www.esnips.com/_t_/mach_kernel and unpack it to your desktop (only MACH_KERNEL not other files!)

sudo mv /mach_kernel /mach_kernel.back

sudo cp -R ~/Desktop/mach_kernel /

sudo chown root:wheel /mach_kernel*

sudo chmod 644 /mach_kernel*

 

 

targa's patchers generally work VERY well, what some people forget is:

especially for Laptops, the layouts are crazy variations of any manufacturer's whim... and then it really has an effect which kernel you are using: the early Semthex kernels did cause problems with the patcher.

 

hope that helps,

ninetto

Asus F3Jc (almost) solution (and solution for almost all ALC861 codecs)

 

Taruga developed this Alfa driver for the Alc861 with Subsystem_Id_0x10430000, installed mainly on Asus F3JC. The problem is that the Bios Post sound device, on Asus F3JC, is somehow connected to the system's sound codec.

This driver should make the sound work fine, because the sound devices, even mic, and digital output, are shown on System Preferences - it also works on Leopard. But the main sound control is still grayed out and, hence, no sound is coming out of the speakers or jacks.

 

I tried to disable and enable the sound on the Bios preferences with no pratical results. Taruga tried the same and he figured out the that there was some strange relation between both. So, Taruga's driver is ready to work, probably on other laptops, but not on Asus F3JC.

Noting about an ALC662 Realtek?

[Pharao2k]

Hi, This soundpatching is a little bit confusing ^^

I have an Asus P5W DH Deluxe with a Realtek ALC882(M).

I´ve downloaded a text file from a link, which was postet a few posts above, but now I haven´t really a clue what to do with it. My Leopard (10.5.0) has stereo output, but lacks 5.1 (not really necessary) and microphone input (<-- necessary for skype).

 

Does someone have a link to a post which explains what I have to do or the time to explain it? Would be very nice

ok, now you got the file it's rather easy

 

get the patcher, appleHDAPatcher17, a few pages back in this same post

get the 882.txt file (probably that's the one you already have)

 

then erase (keep backup) the AppleAzalia, ALCInject and AppleHDA (maybe you don't have the second if you haven't done that b4)

 

done that, you just have to drag and drop the 882.txt onto the patcher

 

look closely to the window that opens, it will tell you what the script has actually detected

 

delete temporal caches and reboot (simply reboot with -f option)

 

as simple as that, and it works!

 

I know I wrote it quite summarised, but I suppose that, being Leopard, you have a fair share of experience. If you have any question on any of the steps, just ask me back

 

happy patching!!!

Hi, thanks for the answer

 

I now have the patcher, but I did not find the files you said I have to delete & backup.

I thought they should be in /System/Library but I didnt found them. The search function doesnt find system files, am i right?

 

Is it ok if I simply move these files in my profile directory or do they need to be moved to another partition?

 

and, at last, does the reboot with -f automatically delete temporary files?

[edit] I found an AppleHDA.kext and an AppleAzaliaAudio.kext, are these the files I should be looking for?

You'll find the kexts in /System/Library/Extensions

 

Open a terminal in the Applications/Utilities folder

 

cd /System/Library/Extensions

 

And there you'll see the files you found. For backup purposes I suggest you use a simple

 

sudo mv AppleHDA.kext AppleHDA.kext.bak

sudo mv AppleAzaliaAudio.kext AppleAzaliaAudio.kext.bak

(you'll be prompted for your password)

 

then use the patcher and yes, the -f will rebuild the kext caches at reboot

 

the last step is just to report back your success

[Pharao2k]

Should there be an information dialog or other response after I drag the file into the patcher? The textbox in it states that I shall move a file on an icon (by the way, which icon, the icon in the dock or the application icon in finder?) and seems like to do nothing if I do so

[jl7854]

First close the patcher. I moved the patcher application to the Desktop then dropped the codec text file on that.

[Pharao2k]

Yeah that fixed it, thx

Well, really last question (I hope ^^), whats the command for rebooting? Don´t want to try it and type in something wrong

And do I need to repair permissions?

[DukeRaoul]

reportings of success here - ALC882 sound on P5LD2-VM working fully thru System Preferences

after using Taruga patcher 1.16 with 882.txt from the link on post/reply #2730

 

I could not find anywhere on this thread to download the patcher... but somebody had mentioned the filename:

AppleHDAPatcher_v1.16.zip

so I googled around for that and found a mexican website to download it from

*EDIT* it is on here, (duh)

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?act...st&id=17887

 

I drug the 882.txt onto the Taruga patcher icon frog on the desktop. It did the rest.

(it put AppleHDA.kext and ALCinject.kext into Extensions ƒ and cleaned up afterwards)

 

Haven't checked the mic or line-in functionality with an actual microphone, but they appear to work in System Prefs.

This all works in 10.4.11 w/koolkal 10.4.10 kernel.

 

thanks to the authors

just go to the menu bar, apple, restart

 

or, if you are in a terminal, "sudo reboot" will do the trick

And whats with that -f option? sudo reboot -f doesnt work

Or am I going the wrong way? Does a simple reboot suffice?

[gabrielbcn]

"sudo reboot" will reboot the machine

 

when you see darwin bootloader, the first message after the bios, press F8

 

then add -f

 

done

 

you almost made it

[Pharao2k]

ah ok I misunderstood ^^

I thought the -f option should be an argument of reboot

Well, the Driver seems like to work BUT I have no functonal microphone...

System Preferences > Audio shows me 2 input devices

Internal Microphone (built-in)

and

Line In (Audio line-in port)

But neither of them seems like to get the signal of my microphone. I tried all of them with every input device. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Same issue here. =\

[maverick_pranav]

please....can any one post the 1.17 beta patcher and tarugas guide!!!!....please........

[maverick_pranav]

finally got the realtek chipset alc262 to work on my vaio.......headphone out and internal speakers are working!...with azalia audio kext only internal speakers were working....

i am attaching the kexts below!....

thanks a ton to taruga!!!!!!!.........

 

will try to get the internal mic working over this weekend...

alc262_headphones_speakers.zip

[gabrielbcn]

Same issue here. =\

 

Ops, I can't tell. I don't have an external microphone to test mine. But I do have a Logitech webcam and, surprisingly, the script has detected the microphone in the webcam. And that one does work. So my trials stopped there when I realised I did have Skype.

 

A couple of ideas. In that directory there were two files for 882, maybe the other worked better.

 

Another one, I'm uploading Taruga's v.17. and the file I used. Maybe a different patcher obtains different results. But if anyone wanted his Logitech webcam's mic to work, that's a side effect here.

 

Good luck with your hunting. It would be nice to find a way to see the audio specs in system profiler too, but that's beyond my abilities.
