alvin777 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Hi. I installed the Skippyretard on my Kalyway 10.5.2 Leopard but how do I uninstall the driver for Skippyretard? My sound chip is an ALC883. I downloaded it from here: Skippyretard, Taruga ALC883 driver Where can you download a good sound driver for Realtek's ALC833? Preferably a driver that will make my 5.1 surround setup work? What is an AppleHDA Pather? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu.Walker Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 FYI, SkippyRetard's AppleHDA.kext still works with one of my beige boxes that I recently updated to 10.5.3 (not bad for a .kext that's dated 2006!). Use Audio MIDI Setup to add an aggregate device and to make 5.1 possible (haven't tried digital, I only have analog 5.1 on that box). AFAIK 7.1 is possible with ALC883, but I've never bothered trying my 7.1 speakers on the beige box as I don't want messing up my setup with the 8-core MacPro. I haven't tried the latest iterations of Taruga's AppleHDA (the ones I tried circa 2007 only gave line-out+line-in+mic) though as I believe the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" policy on this front. SkippyRetard's ALC883 pkg give 4 Line-outs, a Line-in, and a Mic input, essentially giving you the opportunity to use all analog jacks on your ALC883-equipped mobo. SkippyRetard AppleHDA 2006 + Aggregate 5.1 + 10.5.3 = lil sister movie watching fun. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
