AppleHDA Solution - Work in progress

[velayo]

A quick one to let you know that it works flawlessly in leopard.

[XBT]

any additional tricks to get to work soundmax AD1986A?

after the AppleHDAPatcher I have Line Out and Digital Out under the Output in System Preferences -> Sound, but still no sound. I can't set Volume Output.

 

I've attached my codec0

 

Exact same thing here in my Jas 10.4.9. Only got Line Out and Digital Out but can't hear anything. any1 got idea?

I could get sound out with AppleAzalia but no sound in.

btw, I have another PCI sound card (SB live 5.1) plugged in. Does it matter?

[jjduro]

is the alc 861VD different from the alc 861

 

i mean device ids

 

has apple hda worked for anyone with 861vd yet?

thanks

 

Nope. No one has ever had any sucess with the combination.

But some Toshiba laptop users have reported to have sound working out of their ALC861, with edited azalia.

I've noticed, for example, that all the latest ASUS laptops come with ALC861, including the Santa Rosa version. I've seen that a lot of people are experiencing problems with ALC660/861 and getting absolutely no answers. Maybe it's time to start a thread dedicated to this particular sound chip?

We could get some clues about what to do. For instance: Why do the Toshiba's ALC660/861 work and the other laptop don't?

 

My sistem:

Asus F3jc - sound: Realtek ALC861 HDA -> Completely dead

Hi Folks,

 

I just want to report my partially success with this AppleHDA-Patcher.

I installed the Uphuck 1.4i (intel only) on my Asrock 4Core-DUAL VSTA with an ALC888 on board.

The ALC888.txt -Dump worked for me, even the SPDIF-Out works, but unfortunately without having surround-sound.

 

No AC3/5.1 sound possible :-(( Even with the Midi-App there is no possibility to setup 5.1

 

Beside that sound works fine. Thanx a lot for this great work !!

 

Has anyone got 5.1 through SPDIF-Out working ?

 

 

I do, go to Audio Midi Setup and select 'Encoded Digital Audio', it should work. But in my case, it changes automatically from 2 channel to 'Encoded Digital Audio' according to the type of sound being used

[cyclonefr]

taruga there will never be any ADI1985 driver since it works with appleac97 driver right..? thanx for ur effort

[Taruga]

taruga there will never be any ADI1985 driver since it works with appleac97 driver right..? thanx for ur effort

 

What I´ve done here it´s just for HD Audio, not AC97.

Any breakthrough with the Sigmatel 9227 for Intel D946GZIS users....

[omikronz]

Has anyone got 5.1 surround working on a p5w-dh deluxe? I only get 2 channel out with 0.4b.

 

I can get 3 line outs to show up using 1.09 but it still won't let me select 5.1 in audio midi setup... Did that by ebaling more line outs, for some reason when I try this with 1.16 it won't give me the same line outs, does add an internal speakers though.

I've tried Azalia but the effect is similar, I have HD Audio Output in Audio Preferences, I can even set Volume Control but still no sound.

Waiting for Taruga's magic

[VVrath]

Anyone had any joy using HDAPatcher with a Gigabyte P35C-DS3R? According to Gigabyte, the motherboard has an ALC889A codec, but Windows detects it as an ALC885. After trying several Live CD distributions, I managed to get sound working under a beta version of Ubuntu, and have attached a dump of the codec. Using the dump with HDAPatcher runs smoothly, and gives no error messages, but on restart there are no audio devices found under the System Profiler, and I don't have any audio devices to choose from in System Preferences. Checking with kextload, it seems that AppleHDA.kext is not being loaded on startup, but dmesg gives no error messages, and the kext will happily load manually (although this still doesn't give any sound...)

 

Anyone got any ideas how I can get the kext to load on startup? It seems like I'm tantalisingly close to a solution here!

Hi Taruga. I need your help. By means of linux I have cut the dump of codec (sigmatel 9200, dumps from a site did not work). Has dragged on icon AudioHDA Patcher and has received as a result it.

Would it be possible for the patch to support the alc268 on the hp pavilion dv9500t?

 

I tried it using the codec dump I acquired with SLAX live linux, but it says something like unsupported when dragging the dump into the icon.

 

Attached is the codec dump i got from SLAX live linux for the alc268

codec.txt

[Jamespopz]

What codec can I use for my Viao sz460n/c?

[E-werd]

All right, I have success with my sound on my laptop after trying various different things--of course, AppleHDAPatcher_v1.16 is the cure. Here is what I have, and here is the codec dump for the hardware.

 

Gateway MT6705

Intel GMA950 VGA chipset

Intel 943GML chipset

Sigmatel 9250 Audio controller

 

NOTE: I cannot get sound INPUT with a microphone, and headphones only have left-channel sound. With the built-in speakers, however, I have both channels.

 

 

The following codec dump is NOT the same as the one on the FTP mentioned in the first post, some addresses are different.

[:: Valdemar ::]

Can anyone tell me if this information is useful for ALC862 and how can we get aproach of that? http://kanotix.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-23443.html:: Dj Tiesto - In search of Sunrise :: :: [Valdemar!!] - In search of ALC862 Kext :: Another one that could help: <H2 class=post-title>Linux on the Toshiba Satellite A100-0FH</H2><H3 class=post-date>Posted on September 2nd 2006</H3>This is the low-end Toshiba model offered under Dalhousie PCPC’s “TechU” program. This is not a HOWTO, most Linux distributions will do a good enough job setting things up that you won’t really need one, it’s just a list of things I ran into while playing around with setting up Linux on it.The good news is, the laptop is based on an Intel chipset. Intel is (usually) very good about supporting their hardware on Linux, and as a result there are official Intel-supported drivers for the wireless card (IPW3945) and the graphics chipset (945GM). The bad news is that the support for the graphics chipset is sketchy, the driver is under active development and is fairly recent. Ubuntu/Kubuntu both support it by default, Gentoo (for example) does not, unless you unmask a beta version of modular Xorg 7.0. Your mileage may vary. You can use either the i810 or i915 x11 driver.The sound card is a Realtek chipset. It claims to be an ALC862, but I haven’t been able to find much about that from google. The important thing is that like AC97, Intel High Definition Audio appears to be some sort of a standard, or at least, the Intel HDA ALSA drivers appear to support this card.If your sound is fuzzy, garbled, popping or cracking, you’ll need to load the ALSA drivers with position_fix=1 (or 2 or 3) as a module option.Apparently Toshibas with Phoenix BIOSes aren’t ‘real’ Toshibas, I think they’re supposed to be built by third parties. Either way, the Toshiba-specific options in the kernel will not work with this model. Neither will fnfxd, or any other Toshiba utilities. To get the fn+whatever combinations to give a scancode, you’ll need to build and install the Omnibook kernel module. There does not appear to be any way to make the media keys give a scancode."fromhttp://slu.ms/tags/linux/

[E-werd]

Valdemar,

 

Have you tried a linux livecd, and has the sound worked?

 

If it does, go into /proc/asound/card0

 

In this folder you will see AT LEAST a file called "codedc#0" but possible more, like "codec#1" and "codec#2"

 

One way or the other, one of these will contain information about your sound hardware. For example, for me, "codec#0" was my sound and "codec#1" was my modem.

 

Figure out which one it is (or take all of them and find out later) and copy it/them to a USB drive or a drive readable by OSX. After you get into OSX, drop the correct one into AppleHDAPatcher and let it go to town. There is a good chance that will work for you, I am to assume.

 

 

Happy Mac'ing!

[Bourasque]

Hello,

 

First I would like to thank Taruga and all the others for the wonderful work that has been accomplished.

 

My first setup was a Dell 1300 but then I moved to a Dell Inspiron 6400 for better performance. I got the sound working (internal speaker) on both of these comps with the AppleHDA pather and a log of my sound card done in linux (all of the other sigmatel 9200 logs found on the internet were not of any help). In other words, you guys rock.

 

However, even with my own very log from linux, the system profiler gives me no built in sound card listed and in system preferences / sound only "Internal Speaker" is listed. Therefor, I cannot have sound coming out only from the headphone jack and I think it is safe to say that I can not get sound from the line in as well.

 

I did alot of research on this forum and on google (I may have missed it though) for a solution to this problem but I couldn't find any. Did anyone run into this too?

 

Dell Inspiron 6400

Intel 945GM

Sigmatel 9200

Intel DualCore (acpiThrottle rocks btw)

 

Thank you in advance.

Bourasque

I would really appreciate any help or just comments on how I can get this right.

AppleAzaliaAudio.kext works for my speaker but very often it has cracking sound, headphone n mic don't work. Thus, I would like to try AppleHDA solution.

 

Thanks in advance.

I do, go to Audio Midi Setup and select 'Encoded Digital Audio', it should work. But in my case, it changes automatically from 2 channel to 'Encoded Digital Audio' according to the type of sound being used

Thanks a lot for your answer. Interesting thing, that you got a working 5.1 spdif output. I tried the Encoded Digital Audio' Option too, but without success. When I choose this option, the Midi.App changes automatically the chosen 'Audio Output Device' to the default and I have no sound at all. What type of audiodevice do you have and did you create an new device in the Midi.App?Thanks a lot !Cheers,Udo

I've being trying for weeks to install OSX in a system with that type of mobo. How did you do it? Thanks

Hi jjduro,what kind of problems do you have? Problems during installation or after install ? Or GXF issues ? I used the actual Uphuck 1.4i image for installing, and in my case I have to choose the following packagesremove Powermanagementremove ThermalExtension if not the system crashes after reboot. I also chose the natit 0.2 driver (or even 0.1) whithout an AGPdriver for my AGP NV6200.Don't choose more than one gfx driver, in my case it causes GFX failures during login window startup that results in a 'frozen' machine.That's what I can write from memory at this moment.. I am still on the way these days, so I'll try to give you an exact description what I've done when I am back homeagain tomorrow. Cheers,Udo

888-2.txt digital out, mic and speakers

888-a.txt no digital out, mic and speakers

888-D.txt no digital out, mic and speakers

888-b.txt digital out, mic and speakers

With skippy's patch for ALC888, I can 3ch, 3ch+digital, 6ch but NO 6ch+digital

 

Could you help us? Is there any txt full working for ALC888 ICH8???

 

Thanks in advance, great works yours!!!!

Well, yes i did, i tryed different applications trying to get the audio enabled but no sound, i still searching for the right way to enable the sound hardware, and by the way, i guess i found something interesting in many old posts from here and other websites. when i have something clear or many progress, all the people from here will be advised...

 

thanx for your help anyway..
