[Guide] Intel Framebuffer patching using WhateverGreen

When you inject a fake device-id, WhateverGreen.kext will spoof that ID when the graphics kexts go to query PCI device-ids (similar to what FakePCIID+FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics is doing).
Aha. Got it. Any thoughs why this problem occurs in the first place? Possible incompatibility?

Compatibility issue or just bug.
No Macs use Broadwell i3, so ... untested code is buggy code.
 
I set FBAlternatePWMIncrement1 and FBAlternatePWMIncrement2, but patches can not be generated except kextsToPatch (Hex)

Just a heads up framebuffer-flags has been added to WEG and support has been added to Intel FB-Patcher v1.6.8

The new Mac mini actually has a quad core i3. But I think it's a Coffee Lake.
 
I've also tried the FBPatcher and can use a Kaby Lake HD630 with two different configs, but with none of them, the PC wakes up from sleep. With an RX580 and the IGFX configured as connectorless, sleep works.
Should I set the first two connections as dummy?

EDIT:

No wakeup even if the first ports are configured as dummy, nor if it's configured as one port.

Thank you very much, my graphics card Iris plus 640 has been patched and works fine.

Thanks for the guide,
just wanted to let you know it worked out for me with my Broadwell IGPU HD 6200 of my i5-5675c.
I did have to rename GFX0 -> IGPU.
Also went through screwing up the config.plist with Clover Configurator once.

For me it was not perfectly clear in the beginning, where exactly the ig-platform-id should be entered.
It became clear (?) only when I had advanced to the Framebuffer patching part (that I did not need).

Thanks again,

Rudolf
