use a package installer for the 889A then find the HDAEnabler.kext. This will allow it to show up in your system profile.

I got an idea,but it requires typing in the terminal,and after it open and I start typing it asks for a password and it wont let me type it...



Roisoft, Peach os, I cannot thankyou enough.

Using a combination of both your methods, I was finally able to get my sound working correctly. 100% working output, line in, line out etc.

I tried Peachos's link to the kexts which as I suspected didn't work, but after using Roisofts HDA method, after a reboot it worked correctly.

So for anyone else out there who needs to get this working this is how I solved the issue.

1. Delete the previous applehda.kext
2. Download Turuga's patched files using this link http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=857044
3. Apply the kexts using

CODE
sudo -s
(password)

cd /system/library/extensions
chmod -R 755 * && chown -R root:wheel *
cd ..
rm extensions.mkext
kextcache -a i386 -e

4. Set to "enable" in bios, download efistudio from the link above
5. I had to use HDA which automatically inserted the string, and then add to the boot.plist
6. Restart
7. Rejoice in the awesomeness of sound

like I said,I cant type the password,so I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong?
Any ideas:-d
