Rene, don't bother bugging Tangent. I have a demo unit on the way. My first priority is getting the driver working.
Tangent really won't help much - their a distributor, not the OEM. This is an MSI Crystal 945 in a Tangent shell.
I know that the system is actually a Crystal 945. I got the touchscreen working via a dev driver from salt (so not tangent) On the mainboard there is a conenctor: JFP1that goes to the ms4088 board. The mainboard connects to: - power led - hdd led - speakers - main power switch
I can provide you with some photoos if you like.
As stated earlier: the sound is working by with very low volume levels
If you want to try something, see if the bios can be reflashed with the Crystal 945 firmware.
I sound working with the original crystal? I don't think tangent has flshed their BIOS to another version. In the crystal 945 specs I found that the're using a Realtek ALC262 with azalia codec, maybe this helps.

As to the speaker board, where on the main board is it mounted? Is the header labeled? How many pins? It sounds like the speakers may be on the front panel header, which would make them function like headphones. Or this board is custom build for this application and I don't know what I'm talking about.

Hi Guys,
I'm glad t o read that there are other people with the same problem on the same system. I just opened my Tangent 8000S and it has indeed a MSI mainboard: MS7290. The speakers are connected to a small custom board: MS-4088 There's no extra chip on this customboard and the board is directly connected to the mainboard. So probably the signal leaving the mainboard in amplified already. (or there's a amplifier builtin the speakers)
Next week i'll have some time to put tangent under some more pressure for info, so maybe that will speed up things a little bit.
