Audio issue on E6430 - El Capitan 10.11.6

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys

 

Installed OSX El Capitan 10.11.6 on Dell E6430 - using the guide at https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/8506-dell-latitude-inspiron-precision-clover-guide/

 

Initially had screen glitches which went away by downgrading BIOS to A12, external USB WiFi is working too.

 

Now am left with one problem still - getting audio to work on this - Intel HDA 8086 1E20. (Using the  AppleHDA_IDT from the post on above page)

 

I am very new to this - so any pointers on how to check for any specific issues would be very helpful.. 

 

Thanks.

did you copy the kext in /EFI/Clover/kexts/Other/LE to /Library/Extensions?

You need to do that before running the commands again

if you encounter error 77 as you did above, run below again until you only have error 107 which is normal

error 17 only occurred in 10.11, not 10.12

 

sudo touch -f /L*/E*

sudo touch -f /S*/L*/E*

sudo kextcache -Boot -U /

There was only AppleHDA_IDT in the LE folder which was copied into /L/E.

This is a 10.11.6 system.

 

Running the above commands has the same output - error 77

Remove it, rebuild cache.

Download this and place in /L/E

Wait until you get a error popup, click ok.

Run the permission fix and rebuild cache again.

If still errors out, reboot and rerun the commands again.

You should see this kext showing in the output while rebuilding cache.

I did this after rebooting - rebooted again but no change - no audio devices available still.

I am trying a different approach now - Reinstalled the OS on a different partition, copied the kext in /L/E and did a boot. Setup the user and everything. 

 

So - /var/log shows the following message now - (no sound device available still) - Any idea on how to overcome this

Now tried to install Sierra - 10.12.5. Install was all fine but even now I am stuck with no audio device - 

 

But I think there is some progress because kextcache now successfully updates with AppleHDA_IDT 

 

rebuilding //System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel

kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67062 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA0A for kext IOAHCISerialATAPI_Injector.kext

kext file:///Library/Extensions/DisableTurboBoostBattery.kext/ is in hash exception list, allowing to load

kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67030 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA2A for kext AppleHDA_IDT.kext

kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67062 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA0A for kext AppleBacklightInjector.kext

KernelCache ID: CE486D7D43B3D83CC69AA42AC8F2E658

kextcache updated critical boot files, requesting launchd reboot

 
No idea why this is not working still.
