1002:4370 ATI IXP SB400 AC´97 Audio controller using AppleAC97AudioATIIXP.kext

[ole2]

sb400 AC97 kexts made by Slice: AppleAC97Audio.kext

 

Manufacturer ID: 0x1002

Product ID: 0x4370

 

it works, once again, proof of good work from Slice!

 

AppleAC97AudioATIIXP works even for Leo 10.5.2 (Kalyway 10.5.2 to be precise)

I recommend those archived plugins to be included into Kalyway delivered pack: AppleAC97Audio.kext (note to kalyway)

 

side effect: hardware volume control button Up/Down have sticky effect yet fixed - once pressed doesn't change volume level by 1, instead staying in changing mode as if it would be holded, until system restart. This hope will be fixed (once source code of following kext plugins will be published by Slice)

Hi guys, i just installed jas 10.4.3 on a dell Dimension B110, Ethernet works, everything else works. Sound only works on the right channel and I had to change it to right 2 channel and left 6 channel for sound to come out. But it does not have play back. i can't play music from media players. It plays music from web pages though. how can i fix this? I have a AC97 Audio (PCM) btw. I want sound from both channels and play back, i'm new to this, thank you...

hi everyone,

i am using the stupid SB400 Audio 1002:4370 and i just could get it work ONCE (literally once because it worked during the boot after the first kext installation ONLY)

is there anything i can do to get it work for the second time?

i tried every ac97 kexts & even the generic azalia one, but still no luck.

any kind of help would be appreciated.

thanks:)

@Presko, SP1950:

 

Maybe you're in the right place (ole2 reports success with your chipset).

On my conf (1002:e004) this audio kext has some problems, sometimes it works and sometimes doesn't.

At every reboot it gives a different result, and still I don't know why.

You must keep an eye to Utilities-Audio MIDI Setup. Most of times in Audio output tab I can switch between (2ch, 4ch, 6ch), sometimes not (only 2ch or nothing at all!).

If you can switch between 2ch, 4ch and 6ch you have to:

1. switch to 4ch

2. switch back to 2ch (NOT 6ch or it will crash your system!)

 

This causes the driver to reinitialize, it always works for me.

So I decided to take a look at what I've got so far with this driver. I'm using the last version from the other thread that dopefish posted.

 

This is what I've got. At least for my specific hardware, Gateway 7510gx, the Audio driver finds my modem instead of the headphone or speaker jacks. I'm not sure what causes this, and it seems this has happened in another driver for another piece of related hardware. I'm gooing to tinker a little bit, and if I figure out how to get audio working, I'll post my solution, but if you don't hear from me I never figured it out.

 

If anyone else has encountered this problem, and managed a solution, please let me know. Thanks,

As I know you are real author of the driver? (not me, sure)

Publish your solution here, but I can't influence on topic. It would be better a moderator reorganize the thread.

Im running Leo 10.5.6 and also installed this kext to make it work with my 0x4370, works fine!

But, has the same issues with buttons declared up there,

is still there a fix to this issue?

Also the mute button light is turned on itself 'til a sound comes to play.

I hope we can fix this issues soon!

Hey!

 

I have sb400 (4370) too! I've used various kernels i've downloaded! The problem is:

 

I can read the audio, but it have crashes on mp3 (stop sound - the player (not only itunes, that is the audio "codec" really, come back 30seg later slowly, etc)... the error now is that cannot create the codec device! But with some other kernel, i see the message "Unsupported sample rate 44100"

 

By the way, they get different messages, but with the sabe problem manually!

 

Someone can help me?

 

Thanks!
