Audio no work in 32bit or 64bit

please some help

ACL883

Ditto here on sound.
Nothing doing.
V2 using firmware from Gigabyte FF, FE did not work either.
Tried Voodo, Taruga 64

Sound stuff is scattered all over the net but nothing concrete. Thanks for this thread it is lengthy but you gain some knowledge from it.

Thanks to this thread and all the great contributions I have my ES2L R2.0 FC BIOS, E6300 OC'ed to 3.4GHz, 4GB RAM, 9500GT 512MB, PCI TrendNet Ethernet (due to no driver for the R2.0 onboard Ethernet), and PCI Firewire all working great! Everything I have tried so far, including audio and sleep works. I haven't tried automatic sleep but manual works fine and I never used automatic sleep in the past.

I used Conti's myHack 1.0 RC4 to install. Then I extracted my DSDT and compiled and found some errors. I fixed those using the DSDTSE Fixes Menu and then changed the RTC section as sk1nhd33t instructed and added the Method DTGP. For audio I used only the LegacyALC883.kext provided in the ES2L Kit sk1nhd33t linked in the first post of this thread and then modified my DSDT to remove the "Sound AZALIA" section and replace it with coconup's DSDT HDEF code. I also added the DSDT USB sleep fix and System Profiler now shows all my USB 2.0 Buses as Built-in.

For those that may be interested I have attached my dsdt.dst.

Thanks to all those who have contributed.

Great to hear your install is a success. I still can only boot with the 'installation usb drive' inserted and 'boot 1st' option ' in my bios. After that I'm able to eject and all seems well with operating system,,,,,,,,sound, sleep,cmos reset fixed,etc. Any idea how to correct this? Also the overclocking would be nice to try. Same processor. Any settings advice would be appreciated.Thanks

That sounds to me like the bootloader isn't installed on your HD. Did you rerun myHack and target your boot SL hard drive?

For the overclock all I did was set the cpu multiplier to 10.5 and the front side bus to 325MHz. I had the front side bus at 333MHz but after the machine would sleep it would be awake for about 10 mins and would then kernel panic. Backing off the front side bus to 325MHz seems to have fixed that.

Been reading this guide like mad and other sites, however I have noticed that many who build a machine with this board have dedicated video cards, does the onboard video work at all with this or no? I'm hoping to use the onboard until I can save up enough money for a video card.

Haven't been able to find an answer to this one.

In any case, thanks for the guide. Hopefully it's smooth sailings for me.

The built-in Intel GMA 3100 (not GMA X3100) is not compatible with either Leo or Snow Leo. It will work but you won't have QI/CE (VESA only) thus making it suck a lot - such as No resolution change, you might have problems watching videos, can't run a lot of programs that are QI/CE dependent, and lots more.

If you can stand that, you can just go ahead and install it while waiting for your dedicated video card.

BTW, when you decide to purchase the video card, make sure it is 100% compatible.

I'm new to OC'ing... I just tried this... with an 2.5GHZ E5200 and DDR2-800 ram

On the MIT BIOS page I changed
Freq 200 -> 240
PCI Freq Auto->100
SPD Auto->3.3

This gives me 3.0 GHz on the E5200 (in theory the E5200 has much more headroom than this) and maintains 800MHz on the RAM... I think (as I said this is new to me)

SL is booting, have not used long enough to comment on long term stability.. wanted to get feedback from other folks.

My Xbench scores jumped from

Overall 144.03 -> 164.27
CPU 177.30 -> 214.95
Thread 205.34 -> 300.10
Memory 161.36 -> 178.32
Quartz 225.68 -> 270.25
OpenGL 90.05 -> 109.40
User Interface 286.73 -> 349.85
Disk 77.70 -> 75.06

No change in system temp according to iStat and Temperature Monitor.. but as mentioned before I do not actually believe these work, b/c the temps never change and are the same as reported without OCing.

EDIT: on the temp I installed http://macbricol.free.fr/coreduotemp/ and then the 32-bit SL version of MSR Tools (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...80&p=1259137&#) and my temps now do seem to move... again every utility seems to report a DIFFERENT set of temps, but at least now they appear to be move-able. Idling around 37C and peaking around 50C playing Quake 4 with the 5200 at 3.0GHz.

3 stats, new scores in green
E5200 @ 2.5GHz -> E5200 @ 2GHz 10.6.2 -> E5200 @ 3GHz 10.6.3
Overall 144.03 -> 164.27 -> 187.53
CPU 177.30 -> 214.95 -> 213.85
Thread 205.34 -> 300.10 -> 292.42
Memory 161.36 -> 178.32 -> 191.23 (oh, I think I upgraded memory in the interim)
Quartz 225.68 -> 270.25 -> 268.95
OpenGL 90.05 -> 109.40 -> 187.51
User Interface 286.73 -> 349.85 -> 348.28
Disk 77.70 -> 75.06 -> 82.78

I am however noticing a real oddity with mplayer.. suddenly my system is "too SLOW to play this" with almost every video! (it was plenty fast before).

Video in VLC seems ok.. but wtf.. suddenly I have lost audio (no audio device), even tho it was working yesterday... off to investigate.

Thanks again. I went to myhack installer page and reread ...noticed that I failed to follow 'post install' for sure. Little concerned that some 'fixes' seem to cause more problems. No big deal really letting usb stay inserted......boots system and then sleeps. You updated the 10.6.1 download? All the best.
