Thanks for the great work you have done taruga :D I have the sound mostly working on my laptop (using AppleHDApatcher_v1.16 on os x 10.4.10), which has a sigmatel 9200 sound card. The only problems i have are that the internal speakers do not mute when headphones are plugged in (sound plays from both headphones and internal speakers), and that the mute function does not work (on the lowest volume setting, sound still plays, and the checkbox for mute is unavailable). I don't know about the functionality of line-in, but i don't really care about that.

 

Thanks again for all the work you have done, and it would be great if you could help me fix these last small problems. If not though, my sound is working good enough now, so don't worry about it.

 

P.S.: I attached the codec dump (Sigmatel 9200) i used to patch my system, along with a codec dump from terminal in os x.

When I loaded the Patch I got a Kernal panic. Can't get into my system now.

 

When I reboot and gets to the Desktop it gives me the msg "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the button for several seconds on press the restart button"

 

I boot the laptop up again holding the x, or c but makes no difference.

 

Can someone help me please.

Boot with -s

Mount the disk, and go to /System/Library/Extensions and delete AppleHDA.kext

 

What osx version are you using ?

I used Taruga's dump installer and got my sound to work.. Only prob is that there is distortion before any sound... If I run iTunes and play a track I get probably 500ms-1sec of distorted feedback. I cannot play 2 sounds at once either. e.g Cannot run itunes with song playing and get a Yahoo IM alert sound.

I really appreciate all of your hard work Taruga on getting these drivers finished.

 

I have another question. How do I find out which actual audio chipset I have? I know I have a Realtek HD Audio.

 

Laptop Stats:Toshiba A105-S4397

Intel Core Duo T2250 @ 1.73Ghz

1GB DDR2 533160GB SATA II

Panasonic Super-Multi DVD Burner

Chipset - Intel 945GM/950

 

*UPDATE* Since this post was written I have installed the koolkal 10.4.10 SSE3 update and my audio works perfectly now!!

 

Now if I could get my 3945abg working I would be fine. :P

i just wanna confirm if this works with the connexant (0x14f15045) hda chipset?

 

i did it manually with Taruga's guide but i didn't quite grasp the part on layoutid's and pathmap's. now i understand why when Taruga said, "I think I´m gonna loose all my hair 'cause of this", just lookin' at the applehda info.plist...

 

for plan b i used Taruga's patcher (v.1.6) but it said, "Detected unsupported generic codec". was that an error? or did it do the "magic" eventhough it's unsupported? when you apply the linux codec dump into the icon does the patcher directly patch the kext on the Extensions folder or does it do it inside the applehda patcher's resources directory?

 

some clarifications might help, thanks!

 

os version: 10.4.9 netkas kernel

intel hd audio: connexant chipset (linux codec dump same as the one found here 0x14f15045.txt)

 

kudos to Taruga for a great work!

SoundMAX 1981 HD.

 

Taruga & Co, first thanks a lot for working so hard for us. You did some great efforts for the hackintosh.

On my HP nx7400 the patcher fails ( what is not surprising me ) but AppleHDA.kext gets loded after using 1,3. You locked this codec down for 1,6 what is a good idea in general. But I want to play with it and edit my dump. I guess the patcher fails because it has a lot of unsed nodes for the docking station. Some with a docking station should try also. Perhaps there is a switch or something making it think that it is docked. I guess stripping all those unnecessary conectors perhaps we could get it to work. I have tested Ubuntu 6.01. The sound works out of the box. Can we gather some information from there?

 

Thanx re-book

Hi People.

 

I upgraded my unpuck installatio to 10.4.10 and since then my Audio stopped working.

 

It seems OSX cant detect my sound chip.

 

I am using Gygabyte 965P DS 4 which I think comes with an Intel HDA - Realtek chip.

 

However I dont know which one... ;-(

 

Please direct me to a possible solution... I need sound...

 

Thank you very much for any help.

hi Taruga, nice work, but actually i have an ALC862 audio chipset embedded in a Intel 945gm chipset, so i haven't the dump for that chipset.

 

my question is, how can i get or in any way build or compile, i mean find, that dump code?? using a linux live cd or something like that? explore any routes, open files... i dunno... tell me something...

 

and, by the way, i tried to drag a dump file called ALC861.txt and the program does not embed the file, tried opening and copy paste too, but still don't do the job, am i wrong?... where?? please... help..

yes you're right, you have to have access to any linux (native install or livecd) to have your "dump" :D in the linux terminal type "/proc/asound" then find the file "codec#0" (note: the file does not necessarily be directly inside 'asound' but could be in a folder or in a folder . . . inside asound) , once you have located the file type in the terminal "cat codec#0 > /tmp/nameofcodec.txt" . for me i did this inside a livecd so i "dumped" it into my usb flash drive instead of the "/tmp" directory. (reminder: execute the commands without the quotes)

Here is my dump from my ALC883 on a MSI 945GM3 mobo. Hope it'll help someone.

 

ALC883_945GM3.txt

BTW, if anyone with 10.4.8 manage to get it working with this dump, please send me the patched files: jarib34@gmail.com

 

I would be very happy if I could get it to work with my computer as well! :P

Hi All :D

I'm a newbie for AppleHDA here.

I have my new HP nc6320 laptop, and it use AD1981 (0x11d41981) codec.

I try to find and seek everything about how to get this thing work, but no one success on HP platform with AD1981.

So I try to hex edit /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleHDA by myself by following AppleHDA Guide from Taruga topic post. After success hex edited, I try to edit ../AppleHDA.kext/Contents/Info.plist. I struck at how to know the correct Layout_ID and Path Map for it. What ALCinject tell to me for editing AppleHDA.kext. Taruga please guide me for more detail.

I try to help other people who using HP with AD198x.

 

Waiting for any help. :D

hey, read people, and coders..!! :P , i don't know if this will be a surprise for all of you, but here i go: I found a source code that can help for many people to build its own codec or driver for their sound card. (links below), these links comes from http://www.dragonflybsd.org/ and they got a lot of documented material for pci hardware including sound, modem and other stuff... I hope this can help for someone who can interpretate it for darwin's sources.

 

tnx for reading and hoping this could help, also thanks goes for Dillon (from www.dragonflybsd.org) by making codes that makes grow this big community... :D

Just wanted to say great work :)

I have SigmaTel 9271D and by following the directions in this forum and making my own dump with knoppix i got my sound to work in stereo.

 

Now only prob is i have 5.1 surround. Here is my dump so maybe this will aid you in finding out how to enable the surround sound, and hopfully some one that has my card can now at least benifit from some sound

I've searched around and figured some things out, but I just can't get headphones working at all, and it's killing me.

 

Thanks so much for all the work done on this patcher and in this thread!

 

I've got a Compal (not compaq, it's a whitebox brand. compal actually manufactures macbooks and dell inspirons) HEL-80 laptop with a Realtek 883 in it. I used azalia audio and it does not output through the internal speakers, however it does output audio through the headphone jack. The mic, in that situation was inoperative. I tried this patcher, and much to my delight I get mic and internal speakers, but when i plug headphones in I get no sound in the headphones. I change the audio output device to headphones in the sound preference pane but that doesn't do anything either. it doesn't tell me that "no audio output device exists" and it does let me mess with the volume, it just doesn't output any sound.

 

I've played around for a little while trying different values found in the codec dump i got from booting into my linux live cd, but I don't really know what values to put where in the HP section of the info.plist to get it to work right. I hope that by posting my dump and my info.plist someone can point me in the right direction.

 

This sound problem is the last of my issues. Once I get it going i can say with some confidence that my hackbook is fully functional :)

The curious part of all of this is that I have no node 27, 38, or 37 in my codec dump, but the patcher assigns those node values to "headphone" above. ;)

Edit info.plist and change

<!-- HP	 -->
				<array>	
					<array>		
						<array>			
							<dict>
								<key>NodeID</key>
								<integer>27</integer>
							</dict>

 

to:

<!-- HP	 -->
				<array>	
					<array>		
						<array>			
							<dict>
								<key>NodeID</key>
								<integer>15</integer>
							</dict>

 

And give it a try

unfortunately that disabled all audio. changing it back brought back everything the way it was, but still no headphones. I appreciate your help greatly :D
