nVidia Realtek ALC1200 Audio driver

[Luposian]

Haiku currently (as of R28761) does not seem to support the audio chipset in my Acer Aspire X1200.

Here's the info I pulled from Ubuntu and Haiku:

From Ubuntu 8.10:

00:07.0 Audio device [0403]: nVidia Corporation Realtek ALC1200 8-Channel High Definition Audio Codec [10de:0774] (rev a1)

From Haiku:

device Multimedia controller (Audio device) [4|3|0] vendor 10de: nVidia Corporation device 0774: Unknown

I suspect that eventually, this chipset will be supported by Haiku's HDA driver:

​http://dev.haiku-os.org/browser/haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/kernel/drivers/audio/hda

But since that driver is somewhat incomplete still, and only supports a couple of chipsets, it might be a while.

Have you tried the OpenSound optional package yet? You can add this to your haiku image by editing your UserBuildConfig and adding the line:

AddOptionalHaikuImagePackages OpenSound ;

It's not a perfect solution, but might at least give you sound.

Yes, this device should eventually be supported by the HDA driver. Since there is another enhancement ticket for the HDA driver in general, I guess this can be closed as a duplicate of #1072.
