working ALC272 driver for D150

Found it at Insanely Mac, it looks like a guy named Mysticus managed to write a working kext:

AppleHDA_ALC_272.zip

if you want more details, here's the original thread:

¡We are now much closer to a fully working OSX on the d150!

 

Reading the insanelymac post further, a user reported he had no luck with his AAO D150. Have you tried it and does it work for you?

 

Sorry, brushless, but i don't have a d150, just a good old a150 which I'm trying to replace. I just passed on the information from Insanely Mac to the forum. I'll ask the original poster for more details later, like OSX version compatibility , on which platform did he test the kext, and if he feels like writing a howto for us.

Meanwhile, for those of you who really have the d150, a bit of testing would do no harm...

 

I tried this and while I get no errors, I also get no sound. Hopefully it's a step in the right direction though.

 

I tried it.. previously if I went into system profiler under audio devices it showed intel and the device id, now it shows available inputs/outputs, and I got a volume meter on my meny bar, but no sound. I went into system prefs/sound and toggled the output devices but still no sound comes out. If I play an mp3 in itunes the song plays, but no sound...

 

i got the same results. still no sound, but i do have the icon now. one thing i noticed is that the kext attached was meant for the samsung nc10 netbook.

 

Gens,

Hey Brambo,

Where did you get Xcode? unfortunately, i don't have a retail copy of Leopard nor an account with ADC.

Thanks!

/***EDIT*
I just signed up for an account. It's free anyways. But the site is going through maintenance apprently. By the way, the current 3.1 version of Xcode is about 1gig. So yeah -_-;

woooooooooot!!! thanks Brambo for the post!

i got sound coming out the internal speakers!!!!11!!! yay!!!! voodooHDA confirmed to produce sound on D150 model on iDeneb 10.5.6.

I've attached screenshots of the sound preference and the system profiler

 

I was just going to suggest voodooHDA
The signs are good for the D150 now, I might well get one..

 

i think for the ALC272 AppleHDA.kext to work properly on the d150, we'll prolly need a ALCinject.kext similar to the A150 model. I'm hoping someone more knowledgeable can work on the port. The kext works for the toshiba laptop as confirmed in insanelymac forum.

This way, we'll have some options on which kext to use
