Creative SB [Live!, Audigy, Audigy2, EMU10kX eDSPs] OSX Driver info here!

[newbmac]

have you tried unloading and loading? if this fixes the problem then I think there was a workaround to make it automatic... (here) Either of ways, even you should be submitting it to E's power management issue (Shutdown, StandBy, Suspend, EthernetWakeUpEvents are sort of power management related)

 

Automatic loading and unloading articles are plenty out there even google can help (if that one doesn't work)...

Thanks for the offer of assistance. I was more just reporting the issue rather than trying to fix it. I actually never sleep my computer, heck I don't even turn it off normally

When I saw this thread, I was so happy, because I have SB Live! card, that was useless since I started to use OSX on my PC. Yesterday I installed 1.2b1 version of kx drivers, and sound was dead, but after disabling (I renamed AppleHDA.kext) AppleHDA drivers, and one restart everything worked. Finally, I have 5.1 sound

 

Thank you guys.

weird I use AppleHDA along with KX driver

Just report back that on iPC distro, after sleeping the computer, the KX driver stops working. Have to reboot to get sound again.

 

Same here

[badsaddam]

OK so i have it working and i get the sound distortion after x amount of time..

 

if this has been covered sorry

 

but if i click audio output in the midi/audio device settings i get clear audio back for about ten mins...

 

 

so whats the deal does it just get blogged up with data or wat?

How? does sleep work?

[chimagun]

[tevfik]

Hi, First of all thank you for this amazing solution =o)

 

I used KX Driver on my computer it looks working fine(and also thank you for this)

 

On my first computer i'm using SB Live 5.1 and it works fine.

But on my second computer i'm using SB 5.1 CMSS series.. I didn't see this card in unsupported cards on the list. also it's not on supported cards list.

 

MODEL: SB0680

 

KX working for this card?

 

Thank you.

[Nguyen Duy Dat]

Great job!

Thank you very much!

Hello There, thanks for the driver, it works perfectly on my vintage soundblaster pro,

The only reason for me to use that old stuff is for the midi/game port. I plug my midi keyboard on it.

I don't think this function is supported by the kext. Is there a way for making the soundblaster live midi port available on leopard ?

[ewoox]

Hi, what does this mean? (16/24 bit recording not supported) I was planing about to buy a SB card, because input in my CM8738 is NOT IMPLEMENTED. So do you guys have MIC ?

No inputs you could always buy a Griffin iMic or other similar USB dongle to get inputs.

[rogerrrr]

This is great, thank you very much. SB creative LIVE! worked perfectly right after the install I hear the bleep hehe.

 

Thanks again

I have the issue, that blows my mind...

Not long ago i bought Creative Live! 5.1 based on EMU10K1. The latest driver from E started working after repairing permissions and booting with -f. But yesterday it stopped working, even with -f. I`ve tried unloading/loading kext by terminal, reinstalling, but nothing is working. What can i do?

well fella, for people to help you out you will probably have to provide more information.

 

when you kexload, do it with a diagnostic flag (-t) and note the outcome here. try deleting the extensions.mkext in System/Library/ (this is basically what the -f flag does at boot)

 

i dont have your card so its hard for me to help!

Hi,

this didn't work for me. I get s.th. like

14.02.09 13:38:40 kernel kXAudioDevice[0x66eff00]::init: --- driver start-up, version 1.2b1 
14.02.09 13:38:43 kernel kXAudioDevice[0x66eff00]::initHardware(0x6017280) 
14.02.09 13:38:43 kernel kXAudioDevice[0x66eff00]::free() 
14.02.09 13:38:43 kernel kXAudioDevice[0x66eff00]::free_all() - iKX interface already closed

 

I have an Audigy 2 ZS. What can I do? The card isn't detected as Audio device. But Firewir from the card is working.

Answers to most repeated questions are at page1 (first post). Have you checked that page properly? (the bottom area?). I've a feeling iDeneb has something that conflicts with kX (most dudes who used it, reported problems with kX). Mostly when I saw ("iDeneb" + "ALCxx" + "kx") there was always some sort of problem.

 

I'm NOT sure whether this will help or not but if it does, your luck: (see below)

Hi, I have a soundblaster audigy 2, i've installed the drive but only output works, input doesn't work.

 

If I use the 5.1 output in midi configuration the test is ok but then in the leopard doesn't work.

 

Can i have a help please? Do I have to install the soundflower?

 

Thanks

is there any word from the sound driver GOD about sleep support?

[faguilerad]

Hi Guys,

I'm a iDeneb 1.4 user, and everything works fine, except for my Audio.

I got a Asus P5GDC DELUXE mobo with CMI9880 Audio. It's works fine but with no input and no volume control. Now i read about this new SoundBlaster Fix, but didn't works to me. I got a SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio 7.1 PCI Card (01:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller [0401]: Creative Labs SB Audigy LS [1102:0007]) and doesn't works. So, anyone knows if this card is support? And if it is, how can i make it work?

Thanx.

[ѕӎѳѳ₮ңӌ]

it doesnt work with the X-FI cards

There is only one way to find out, someone has to pm him (No! I won't do it, i have my own reasons ). 

 

Maybe someone has to bribe E? (best way if you ask me) or send E some windows virus so he can concentrate more on OSX for a while (hehe honestly, I would prefer everyone sending one polite pm )... not many fans asking for it probably has something to do with it...
