Hey People...

Still a beginner on this kind of thing, but making some advances.

I'm posting here a partial solution that can make Via AD 1888 users get Stereo fully working on the 4 principal speakers. And Mic also working, in case front-connector or back connector.

I dont know if anyone done this before, i tryed several things and thsi solution was the better for me until now.

Thanks to Pattjin since i used his kext as source.

Please if you install this kext, GIVE ME FEEDBACK, any aditional info will be great (even "it works on this chipset or this board"), as i intend to keep working on it.

My intention is to get 5.1 sound on this board... i don't know if it is possible.

 

For begginers, this is what you need to do:

 

- Put the kext on your desktop

- Open terminal and type

sudo su

- Give your password and press enter, then type

cp -R /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext /Users/put-your-user-name-here-please/Desktop/BAK

cp -R /Users/put-your-user-name-here-please/Desktop/AppleAC97Audio.kext /System/Library/Extensions

chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext

chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions

rm /System/Library/Extensions.*

kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

- Restart your system normally and...

4.0 Sound!

 

IMPORTANT NOTE:

In most cards the connectors will be changed! Try to plug your sound boxes on different connectors (ignoring the motherboard specs of wich plug does what...)

 

Hope people get happy.

I will try to prouce an installer for this installation.

And people, if anything goes wrong, the original kext that worked before will be at you desktop in a folder named BAK.

If everything is fine, you can delete this older and enjoy your sound.

:rolleyes:

=============================

 

Portuguese version: (sorry to post in 2 languages, but people in my country will enjoy, i think.)

 

Pessoal, vou traduzir pra portugu�s pra facilitar os iniciantes, mas respondam em ingl�s (ou com copia em ingl�s).

 

Estou postando uma solu��o parcial para fazer os chipsets VIA com som AD1888 funcionarem em Stereo 4.0. O microfone funcionr� pelo plug trazeiro ou pelo plug do gabinete para quem usa.

N�o sei se algu�m conseguiu isso antes, mas procurei bastante e esta foi a melhor solu��o pra mim at� agora.

Agradecimentos ao Patjjin, usei o kext dele como source.

Se voc� instalar o kext, dando certo ou n�o, por favor ME CONTE COMO FOI, qualquer informa��o adicional vai ser util, uma vez que quero melhor o trabalho.

To tentando um 5.1 ainda, n�o sei se d� pra fazer.

 

Pros iniciantes, exatamente o que vc precisa fazer:

 

 

- Ponha o kext no seu desktop

- Abra o terminal e digite

sudo su

- D� seu password e aperte enter, a� digite:

cp -R /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext /Users/put-your-user-name-here-please/Desktop/BAK

cp -R /Users/put-your-user-name-here-please/Desktop/AppleAC97Audio.kext /System/Library/Extensions

chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext

chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions

rm /System/Library/Extensions.*

kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

- Reinicie o computador e...

Som 4.0 Stereo!

 

NOTA IMPORTANTE: Na maioria das placas os plugs estar�o trocados! Tente plugar suas caixas de som em diferentes buracos de audio (mesmo que de mic) caso notem algum problema

 

Vou tentar fazer um instalador assim que puder.

E, gente se qualquer coisa der errado, o kext original estar� numa pasta chamada BAK no desktop de voc�s.

Dando certo, podem deletar esta pasta e curtir seu som stereo, com 4 caixas de som inclusive.

:rolleyes:

Can you please repost the link or send it to me? All my hackintosh needs is sound.

 

Is there a solution for Leopard? Will this work?

 

Do you still have the installer? If so can you send it to me?

Just to clarify: it was a tiger-only solution, so no much use nowadays, thats why I removed the link, which was against some licensings.... sorry for that. I recommend VoodooHDA for any user of leo or snow leo
