I am currently using VodooHDA 64 Bit →
Line-Out, Line-In, Mic & Front Panel Mic work. (That's all I've tested / I do need to work) only problem is the SystemProfiler-crash I've descrypted in the topic I've recently started.
I also tried this Guide: How to port AppleHDA to SL →
But I had no success with it as trying to add an "Device (HDEF)" to my dsdt.dsl caused a compling error.
On Leo, VoodooHDA would get all staticy and junk after sleep/wake, does this still happen with the x64 version in SL? I'd try it myself but i have way too much stuff open to reboot now.
Also, does this load from an EFI partition yet? I dont really mind installing it in S/L/E, but if i can use it in my efi partition i might as well, right?
Edit:
Doesnt load from efi partition, but loads from S/L/E. It still gets fuzzy after waking from sleep though. Anthing else work for alc888 in SL?
