I gave it a try and it didn't work for me. When my IGPU is enabled with -igfxvesaThis is the easiest method I found in Big Sur with imac smbios for drm. Add -igfxvesa to bootargs with WEG. igpu will be disabled and appletv, drm etc. works fine. If you need igpu for sidecar etc., remove and reboot. I get about additional 10 secs black screen during boot though with this -igfxvesa.
as a boot argument, WEG configures it using an Nvidia framebuffer instead of the
usual Intel Capri framebuffer for my 3rd generation CPU. I tried with an HP 8300
configured as a MacPro6,1 in Big Sur, and an HP 8300 configured as an iMacPro1,1
in Big Sur. I tried with IGPU off or on, secondary or primary in BIOS, headless or
undefined.
Do you define your IGPU in device properties? Which iMac SMBIOS are you using?
