reecepeart Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hey guys - So the Sigmatel 9250 now works completely with a Dell Inspiron 1520? If this is so could some one point me to the required files as well a walkthrough. Please could some one help me, I am clueless on this one. And if someone can, could some one help me trying to find the drivers required for running iATKOS on my Dell Inspiron 1520. Greetings from Australia. All the best, Reece Peart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roneil4 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 theSlug, currently only the first kext released, with support for speaker output only, is the only thing here that works for us D630 owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EqUaTe Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 theSlug, currently only the first kext released, with support for speaker output only, is the only thing here that works for us D630 owners. Could you post the exact kext you're using? Also, what is the state of your AppleAzaliaAudio & ALCInject kexts? I've so far been unable to get any sound out of my D630. (BIOS revision is A05 atm, debating updating to the newly released A06). Cheers, EqUaTe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodo_z Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Not for me I tried everything discussed in here, but still no success. I have a Dell Vostro 1700 running iAtkos v.1.0, too. Maybe there are different hardware setups or firmware versions used? Hoping for a installer fixing all the probs left Strange things happen and suddenly my Sigmatel 9205 works - didn't change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reecepeart Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 How is the development of the Drivers going - on the Dell Inspiron 1520 and has anyone actually got sound working on a Dell Inspiron 1520 yet? Thanks Reece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roneil4 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 After a little tinkering, I got the automatic sound switching working on my D630. I have the kext attached. The reason it did not work earlier is that for some reason, if you leave the MuteGPIO key set to 1, it keeps the speakers muted continuously (at least it did on my D630). This is what was marked in the original kext. It was a simple fix, but mute does not work currently. I am going to keep working on this and see what I can do. Tell me if it works or not, and if not, include your system specs. P.S.: This should work for systems on which Paulo's first kext worked, but nothing afterwards worked AppleHDA.kext.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBoi Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Ok i try to sum up :- What did Hellober should work with all Dell Computers (Latitude, Inspiron, Vostro) - After you get that file working, try this one (post 66) : AppleHDA.kext It should add support for headphones and jack input - If it works, try this one (post 83) : AppleHDA.kext It should add support for automatic switch between Headphones and Speakers At this step, Mute and Mic In don't work. - The next file (post 110) : AppleHDA.kext seems to only work on my D830 (it should add Mute and Mic In) If you have post 83 file working, you can try these files: - File 1 : based on post 83 : should work for all who have post 83 working. It doesn't add any feature. - File 2 : should add Mic Input compared to post 83 - File 3 : should add Mute compared to posrt 83 (it s normal if there is not Mic In) Please tell me what files don't work with you. Thanks. Edit : better with files ... Hey folks, I've got a situation here. All I did was log in as root user in my Zephyroth AMD Leopard instance. I installed the 1st AppleHDA.kext file provided by Paulo. Rebooted, and presto, I have sound...kinda. My machine is not a Dell, but rather a Gateway M-1617. It's still a 9205 Sigmatel though. So, that being said...I play an MP3 file...but it's strange. The MP3 only plays through the speakers in ITunes when I'm moving the mouse. If I stop moving the cursor, the sound stops. If I move it again, the music plays crystal clear. Anyone else run into this? Seem a little strange to anyone? Also...when I check the "About" section in my Leopard instance, under "Audio" I have "No built in audio". Even when it semi-works as listed above. Thanks!

Ignore the no built-in audio thing in system profiler. Try one of the newer kexts - see if any of them work for better for you. Also, posting a codec dump might be useful.

iwantsound44 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 i tried paulo's kext for automatic switch between headphones and the built in audio and it worked but after i shut my computer off i did not have any audio.. so i went back to the old way.. also im confused about the mute thing for my vostro 1500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcx987 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 iwantsound44 did you use a the kext replacer used earlier? If you didn't use that on the 3rd kext file and it should work just make sure to repair disk permissions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwantsound44 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 ok i used the kext replacer and i got the automatic switcher to work and when i add the kext to do the mute it does nothing and i am repairing disk permissions also if i get the mute to work will i be able to use my button for mute on my vostro 1500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, posting a codec dump might be useful. I tried the two newer kexts provided by Paulo. I get no audio at all. I also tried all three kexts provided by Paulo in my Uphuck Uni 10.4.9 instance. None of them worked at all. As for a codec dump, what software do I need to get one? (I've heard Linux live CD...but where can I get a copy?) What command do I run to get it once I have the cd?

Also, I am going to try to fix the mute thing, because it has been bothering me a lot. As for internal microphone, I have no way of testing it, so I am not sure I will be able to do that. (unless D630s have internal microphones standard, then I guess I would have a microphone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can check my sound dump , maybe theres a diferent node or something like that. Thanks a lot sig9205.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, posting a codec dump might be useful. Here you go...my codec dump as requested. It didn't work when I installed it using the HDA Patcher. Still having that issue with my sound cutting out until I move the cursor. It does that with Roneil's kext provided as well. None of the other kexts provided work at all.

roneil4 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Also working well for me :)Mute is annoying me too, so I too will try and look at that ;)As far as I know, the internal mic is standard on d630's.. I'm not 100% sure of that though.EqUaTe Is the mic the little hole on the keyboard bezel, in between the wifi and battery leds? Also, so far I have not found a solution to mute, but I think I will now compare the mute-fixed kext and the current kext, and see what that comparison yields. Heyt roneil , i tried your kext , and sound works ok , but then when i plug the headphones switch seems to be ok but theres no sound at all , in system preferences it change the output from build-in to headphones, but for some strange reasons it doesnt sound nothing . Maybe you can check my sound dump , maybe theres a diferent node or something like that. Thanks a lot I am sorry, but I do not know very much about sound drivers. Earlier, when I found the fix in the other kext, I only found it through trial and error. I think Paulo, or even Taruga, would be the right people to go to for this, because they know what they are doing. Once again, I am sorry I cannot help you.
