Hello!
I followed the guide and my machine works nearly flawlessly! Thanks a lot! (Using Firmware F5)
However, I am still having issues with the integrated Intel GPU.
The RX 580 is my main GPU and sits in SLOT 2. SLOT 1 is occupied by a PCIe Broadcom WIFI + Bluetooth module because it is the only card that fits under the massive Noctua DH-15 cooler. My main display is a DELL U2718Q 4K display, attached to the RX 580 via DisplayPort.
When I first did setup everything up with MacMini8,1 SMBIOS and enabled iGPU along all the other settings from the guide, viewing JPG-files worked flawlessly. However, sleep did not. It would only wake up once, or hang for an eternity.
In addition to that, the Designare often would emit 4 long beeps during POST, supposedly because it is unable to detect a primary display. After the series of beeps, it will boot into CLOVER and even the BIOS without any issues.
When I disable the iGPU or make it headless, the system boots and sleeps just fine. But the JPG view does not work.
I then attempted headless mode, as described in the Final Cut Pro X section of the guide and applied all the settings in my Clover config.plist.
The iGPU would not show in 'System Information', but I guess that is normal, right?
It would however be displayed in iStat Menus - as one bar indicating its memory use, without any other labels than "GPU" associated with it.
I have temporarily switched to iMacPro1,1 SMBIOS - and JPGs can be viewed without the iGPU now.
As of right now, I am not a Final Cut Pro X user - but I might be in the future. Hence I would be interested in getting the iGPU to work and also be able to use the MacMini8,1 system definition as I think it should work better since these systems have more in common. I assume enabling the iGPU makes a noticeable difference, otherwise people wouldn't be so concerned with enabling it.
Attached is my config.plist of my test system. Do you guys have any idea what I might have done incorrectly?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
schreiberstein
