Enable sound in OpenSolaris under VirtualBox

Kalau tergerak hati plak nak install OpenSolaris, gi download kat sini dulu OpenSolaris 2009.06 LiveCD (x86) md5sum (osol-0906-x86.iso) = 86e19c89a30c9b91cbb096a758dea737 itupun kalau nak check ler. Err... nih sedikit sebanyak pasai livecd tuu as stated in the download page


OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a single CD combined live/install image for x86: a core operating system, kernel, system libraries, a desktop environment and a package management system. Automated installer (AI) images exist for deploying on both x86 and SPARC hardware.

Installation in VirtualBox is ho hum uneventful, senang takbley nak cakap w/pun a bit slow tak tau kenaper. Basically, boot livecd tuh, once dah masuk kat desktop dier baru kiter initiate Installation to harddisk. Tak susah maner pun, but that's not the point in this article...


Yg pening nyer, post installation config problem. Senang citer, audio takder i.e. no available sound device! Mmm... google saner sini baru dapat tahu yg mmg OpenSolaris ader sket hal dengan sound, even dgn configuration VirtualBox with common ICH AC97 audio controller... Salah satu link yg sangat helpful How to get Audio to work on OpenSolaris on VirtualBox

To be continued...

Quran Viewer 2.9 (beserta dgn terjemahan Melayu & Indonesian)

Audio bits not working, tp selain dari tuh mmg mantap... Sedikit intro mengenai software ini

Wassalam…



Creative Sound Blaster Live! dgn Win7 Enterprise x64

Secara ringkas nyer kwn bg ler step-step yg diamik utk mendptkan sound dgn sblive dlm win7 ent. x64, drivers dari Creative Labs & Microsoft non-existent, sebab sound card nih dah dianggap sebagai EOL (end of life) product

 

1. Download kx driver utk x64 dr sini sblive_kxdrivers_x64.rar, thanks to kX Project
 



2. Unrar ke temp. folder, tak kisah ler memaner... musti dpt ini file kxdrv3548-x64-full.exe lepas extraction


3. Gi kat device manager, uninstall suma driver2 sblive yg takleh jalan (kalau ader yg telah diinstall sebelum nih dan tidak berfungsi).


4. Reboot, dan sebelum masuk login screen cecepat tekan F8 byk kalik, pilih option Disable Driver Signature Enforcement


5. Right click kat kxdrv3548-x64-full.exe, pilih Run As Administrator, klik Yes utk extract driver. Pastu biler setup jalan, pilih Install utk install drivers dan software yg berkenaan (kX mixer etc)


6. Reboot lepas abih install setelah diprompt utk reboot, kendian masuk balik ke desktop.


7. Bukak Device Manager, check sama ada driver utk sound card install dgn baik atau idak.


8. Seterusnya, Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Change System Sound > klik tab Playback, pilih Master Mixer & test bunyi. Default rasanyer 4.1 atau lebih tp tak kisah ler sebab speaker yg disambung akan berbunyi. Dlm kes kwn nih, speaker 2.1 ajer, so bile test lambat sket baru ler kuar bunyik kat speaker satelit 2 bijik tu.


9. Lepas tuh kwn setup pulak Wave Out 4/5, bila test kuar bunyik kat dua2 speaker satelit, setkan device ini sebagai Default.


10. Klik orb Win7 > All Programs > kx Audio Driver kendian run kx Mixer.


11. Bila dah masuk main screen, pilih Speaker Setup, pilih 4.1 atau lebih... jgn lupa tick "Use Subwoofer Output" dan jugak "Bass Redirection"


12. Close kx Mixer, test mainkan lagu mp3, movies dsb... Sound quality lebih baik dr driver utk winxp. Selesai.



Cheers
