Audio Fix VoodooHDA

New postby hsd » Sun Apr 12, 2009 5:45 am

Finally an audio solution Cinorhc has released the much anticipated VoodooHDA.

VoodooHDA is an open source audio driver for devices compliant with the Intel High Definition Audio (HDA) specification, based primarily on code from the FreeBSD hdac driver. It is intended as an Intel-only replacement for AppleHDA on Mac OS X with support for a wide range of audio controllers and codecs.


I've searched the tables and have found the codec/driver name for the Compaq.

{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD700D, "IDT 92HD700D" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD71B5, "IDT 92HD71B5" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD71B7, "IDT 92HD71B7" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD71B8, "IDT 92HD71B8" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD73C1, "IDT 92HD73C1" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD73D1, "IDT 92HD73D1" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD73E1, "IDT 92HD73E1" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD75B3, "IDT 92HD75B3" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD75BX, "IDT 92HD75BX" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD81B1C, "IDT 92HD81B1C" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD81B1X, "IDT 92HD81B1X" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD83C1C, "IDT 92HD83C1C" },
{ HDA_CODEC_IDT92HD83C1X, "IDT 92HD83C1X" },


Cant really test yet until my external DVD-RW drive arrives or get off my arse and install via USB Drive. This should give me more motivation though. :D But users at IM have confirmed this working.

To remove applehda.kext, easiest way is probably going to your Primary HDD/System/Library/Extensions folder and find the kext then just move it to the recycle bin. I did that step and then used kext helper to install the kext. Waited then rebooted and got audio. Still missing mic and function control but at least audio does work.

Thanks to Voodoo for getting something working.

Someone over at the insanely mac forum has confirmed this works on the hp mini 1000. THIS IS HUGE! I just ordered my hp mini today, for this exact reason.

From user handleme
"Awesome. This works on the HP MINI 1000!
Just had to remove the AppleHDA kext before installing the Voodoo one. And it works! At long last.. thank you."

It's True.

I am running 10.5.5 with the VoodooHDA.kext and my mini has sound. Their is a trade off for the moment though. You have to remove the AppleHDA and the Azalia kexts which will render your mic not working. So, if you dont mind this then i am happy with this so far.

Napster at Insanelymac posted his kext so you dont have to compile a kext for yourself. You have to try this at your own risk.

Here are my Mini's Specs.

I updated a Mini 1000 (1030NR) to 10.5.6 earlier today (following the guide - thanks!!) and then noticed the postings about the possible sound fix. Removed AppleHDA, installed the kext and sound works perfectly. This is awesome. Thank you!!

To get volume control, just select PCM in "Output"

Did you select PCM as output in sound properties? That's the only way to get volume control, and thus to make sound louder if you wish.
