do you know Taruga v2.0 patcher? and I didnt find the download link:(

do you have?

Xenophage 11-07-2008 11:09 PM

I dunno. Without some serious help from above (meaning Taruga and his minions) I don't see much point in it. It would take forever, since I'd have to cover all sorts of ground that's already been covered by others. Seems a waste.

Still, I have a few ideas as to how I might be useful. Let me think it over for awhile...

P.S. (No clue about the 2.0 version. AFAIK, no-one has it but Taruga.)

AHA! That first link you posted is our path to glory. Someone is actually working on the 889a. Excellent. Although it's a step backward from the way he intends them to be used, I took his 889a kexts and put them into my s/l/e folder, and everything works brilliantly - including System Profiler, and my digital coaxial output. Functionally, it actually works the same as my previous solution did, except with a vanilla AppleHDA.kext from 10.5.5. For me, that's a step forward.

Now if only someone would devote some attention to the optical digital output.

I didnt understand did you get 3 kext and pur s/l/e folder. not combine with AppleHDA.kext and did you deleted the AppleHDA.kext , can you make it clear your test?

I also am using ideneb 10.5.5.

what is situation?

I downloaded Stickpin's "Realtek ALC885/889A BETA V5" kexts. I then removed all other audio kexts in my s/l/e folder. No ALCInject, no AppleHDA, no HDAEnabler - nothing. I then put in the ones I downloaded from stickpin, AND a vanilla AppleHDA.kext for 10.5.5 that I grabbed off my (real) MacBook. I launched OSx86 Tools and ran "Set Extensions Permissions," "Clear Extension Cache," and "Touch Extensions Folder" - just to be sure. Upon reboot, the whole thing worked as advertised. To be fair, the only improvement to my previous setup is that I have better info in my System Profiler, but evidently Stickpin is working on getting the other audio outputs working. There's light at the end of the tunnel.

can you send orginal AppleHDA.kext? I want to see the light:)

Well, I doubt InfiniteMac would want me to post actual Apple intellectual property here. There must be one out there somewhere.

it doesn't have to be placed here... thats what PM'ing is for in this case.
