Working ALC888/EP45-UD3L audio in SL
I was wondering if anyone has their ALC888 (I'm using an EP45-UD3L) audio working either through DSDT or kexts? How about under the 64-bit kernel? I've tried following the DSDT editing guides to no avail.

Just use my AppleHDA kext. Use DSDT to inject.
ALC889a (with analog 5.1 surround) →
I used this to get my ALC888 running
What method works best for ALC888 sound....?, voodohda, efi strings, or tarugas patch ↗
Good luck!
EP45-UD3L ALC888 Kexts and DSDT.aml/dsl Required
I would highly appreciate if any body could send me kexts used for enabling sound in Snow leopard with copy of DSDT.aml and DSDT.dsl so that I can also get sound. I have been trying searching google but nothing coming up. I just need sound and mic no 5.1 or 7.1.

Yeah me too, I have been trying for forever making several dsdt's using a bunch of different kexts and still no audio. And drives other than my Macintosh HD won't mount, even not manually in disk utility.
Yes, working ALC888 on GA-EP45-UD3L 10.6.2 Snow Leopard
10.6.2 on GA-EP45-UD3L
Audio ALC888:
-dsdt.aml edit added HDEF code
-LegacyHDA.kext from 4 out 2 in HDA series ↗
-Finally no pop / crack sound while adjusting audio. This came after getting my plist's in /Extra/ filled in with my custom data. I used a program called Lizard to get my plists right.
-Here's my pin config; please know this is incomplete code/edit and see the thread linked above for details.
