Kamal, try these too!

I dont know what IDT audio is... my card is realtek, but anyways, voodooHDA seems to handle almost all common cards.

Try these I'm uploading, its a folder containing 4 files.

- Delete VoodooHDA, check both Extra/Extension and System/Library/Extensions
- From the folder copy VoodooHDA.kext to S/L/E
- copy "Voodoo HDA Helper" to Applications folder
- Go to System Preferences, Accounts, on the top right click "Login Items" and add "Voodoo HDA Helper" from Applications Folder
- from the folder, run Kext Utility
- Disk Utilities - Repair Permissions
- Reboot
- from folder run VoodooHDA.prefpane

I think that's it !

Hope it works!

I reckon it's caused as VoodooHDA.kext isn't loaded - so just try again to install the PrefPane after restart or check if VoodooHDA kext is loaded with using kextstat on Terminal. :)

damn, Imkantus, you are 100% right... Kamal, I forgot one step!

Go to System Preferences, Accounts, on the top right click "Login Items" and add "Voodoo HDA Helper" from Application folder

reboot.

I have corrected the previous post!

Hi Gurruwiwi,

To load HDA helper on login didnt help but i found the problem..

If you see my erlier posts about what kext i had in my extension library you will see that AppleHDA.kext was in there and it was loaded before VoodoHDA.kext. And when it does It didnt load VoodooHDA.kext so i deleted AppleHDA.kext and then it work like a charm. (Like they say)...


Is it possible to you to send me a list of your kext installed on your 6935g i wounder why my card reader dont work maybe same problem here.

Look at my kext on my attachement maybe i have to many kext how does not need to be there thats why i whant your list of kext to see what you have and what i have so i can strip it. :)

Best Greatings KAMAL... Finaly AUDIO Works... thanks to Your help Gurruwiwi...

Now we must wait for to fix the mic problem. Have you any idé how to do it? or must we wait for a new version of voodooHDA.kext?

Best regards

I had already mentioned that about AppleHDA a quite a few pages back. I cant remember all the individual solutions, I thought you already knew this. It is also in the tutorial. Anyways...

Did the Voodoohda.prefpane work?

Check in System Preferences, you should have a new plugin called VoodooHDA. You can choose your mic and boost the signal. It might or might not work.

Otherwise, consider yourself lucky! From here you need dsdt.aml patching.

Or, just buy a compatible USB audio card that work native with OSX, or a usb microphone, there are a couple around really cheap, I dont know which, because when I need to record I use an mbox 2

KamalAhmad 10-24-2009 08:40 PM

Yes i have the icon in the systems preferences but the mic does not work. have it on the MAX volume. but no luck,

Did you get it to work? There is mic behind the camera. on the 6935g.

How to pach "From here you need dsdt.aml patching". have you any information how to do that.


Best regards
Kamal

Exactly Kamal, that is the deal with almost everyone. No internal mic. You might have external mic working, test it and play around with the preference pane. If no mic at all, then that is it.

dsdt patching is very difficult and involves making code, decompiling and recompiling with linux. I tried it and nearly went crazy. But when done right, you can make your laptop perfect mac clone (video, ethernet, audio, etc). But, as I have everything covered with kexts there is no need.

IS this anything to think about?
