Hi All
Nice work getting VoodooHDA released! I just wanted to provide some feedback after initial testing on MSI Wind.

The driver works as expected, I have sound both on speakers and headphones, switching is automatic, nice :-)
Mute is broken as described in the Readme, but I can live with that.

Input is a bit flaky, internal mic seems to detect something if I turn sensitivity all the way up (I get a lot of distortion too, sadly).

I had one kernel panic after installing VoodooHDA, when putting my Wind in sleep mode, don't know if it's due to VHDA or not...

Is there a way to add AppleHDA.kext to Disabler.kext? That would be nice.

cheers

General Feedback: -

Taking out or leaving in AppleHDA.kext does not have any effect on VoodooHDA use for me.

Have been playing around with settings for past two days, internal Mic as stig_dk says gives nothing but static no matter what the settings.

External Mic switching works fine, had to play with settings quite a bit to get an acceptable output (recorded in Audacity) and works ok with ichat.

Real pain is having to reset all the settings following a restart if I want to use Mic.

Current Settings:

OUTPUT:

Master 44%, PCM 100%, Speaker 100%, Mic 100%, Inputmix 80%, Recording Level 80%, Mic 2 100%

INPUT:

Speaker 100%, Mic 100%, Inputmix 90%, Mic 2 100%

Thanks for the great work Devs, much appreciated.

Further tweaking of control settings to get better external mic output being as internal not usable.

OUTPUT:

Master 25%, PCM 100%, Speaker 100%, Mic 25%, Input mix 25%, Recording Level 80%, Mic 2 0%

INPUT:

Speaker 100%, Mic 50%, Input mix 50%, Mic 2 0%.

Fairly happy now until further developments.

WizGnome:
The 0.2.1 version working as previously posted (MSI U90X MSIWINDOSX 10.5.6) but with the 0.2.2 version mixer settings appear to be preset and no audio can be heard on Internal or External Microphone.

I made volume setting utility against after reboot initialization.

*This small utility is for VoodooHDA *0.2.1* not 0.2.2

first, Adjust volume using Control Pain

run setVoodooVolume with no args.

-->
$ setVoodooVolume
Analog PCM #0: 0 Master  0.56
Analog PCM #0: 0 PCM  0.56
Analog PCM #0: 0 Speaker  0.56
Analog PCM #0: 0 Microphone  0.69
Analog PCM #0: 0 CD  0.56
Analog PCM #0: 0 Input mix  0.00
Analog PCM #0: 0 Recording level  0.12
Analog PCM #0: 1 Speaker  0.75
Analog PCM #0: 1 Microphone  0.83
Analog PCM #0: 1 CD  0.75
Analog PCM #0: 1 Input mix  0.00
<--

put the necesaly volume line into /etc/rc.local

/usr/bin/setVoodooVolume 0 "Recording level" 0.12
/usr/bin/setVoodooVolume 1 "Microphone" 0.83

- 0 means output / 1 means input

I'm happy now!!!!!1111 :)

enjoy!
