[Audio] Could this be the solution to SoundBlaster cards??

I just started to play around with iATKOS v4, I used v1 previously which I had a very hard time to get working. Currently it works pretty good with cpus=1 enabled.

My system is:

Dell Dimension 8200
P4, 2GHz, SSE3
256RAM (!! amazing it works with this much mem)
60GB MacHD, 120GB WinXP
SB Live! 5.1 card - NOT WORKING

I came across this thread after doing a Google search for "iatkos sb live driver"
http://www.driverheaven.net/mac-os-x...0b3-alpha.html

I quickly went to the site, installed the driver, but its not working for some reason. I tried both versions, neither works. I checked the HCL and I have an SB Live card that is compatible (or should be from their list).

What gives?

Anyone on this forum more knowledgeable about this than me care to give me a hand and try it out for themselves? Sound working on my OS X install is all that's keeping me from using it full-time over FreeBSD. More native apps available for Mac OS X.

Thanks in advance!

Nobody's tried it yet? This is what I can gather from doing a lot of searching. I tried to load the kernel extension manually, since kextstat | grep 'kX' doesn't return that it's loaded. I get this:


bash-3.2# kextload kXAudioDriver.kext/
/System/Library/Extensions/System.kext/PlugIns/IOKit.kext/IOKit: Undefined in symbol set: __ZN14IOPMrootDomain24systemPowerEventOccurredEPK8 OSSymbolP8OSObject
/System/Library/Extensions/System.kext/PlugIns/IOKit.kext/IOKit: Undefined in symbol set: __ZN14IOPMrootDomain24systemPowerEventOccurredEPK8 OSSymbolj
kextload: loaded version 2.4 of module com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily differs from requested version 2.4.1
kextload: a link/load error occured for kernel extension kXAudioDriver.kext/
link/load failed for extension kXAudioDriver.kext/
(run kextload with -t for diagnostic output)


bash-3.2# kextload -t kXAudioDriver.kext/
extension kXAudioDriver.kext/ has potential problems:
Warnings
{
"Kext has no explicit kernel dependency" = true
}

kextload: extension kXAudioDriver.kext/ appears to be loadable

Someone a lot smarter than me has to figure this out. It appears to be working for others with Audigy/SB Live cards. I can't figure out why it's not working for me!

Kext incompatible with OSX...simple...

Need wait SoundBlaster (or someone) make new versions about this kext.
