Dell M6800 Big Sur/OC 0.6.3 freezes after logging in

nojo said:

Installed Big Sur 11.0.1 with OpenCore 0.6.3 with keyboard/trackpad/sound/brightness slider/ethernet working. Opencore will boot in to Catalina 10.15.7 (with current updates) as well. Problem is that Big Sur freezes up sitting at the login screen, or in an app, 15 minutes later. This has been consistent, but not a problem in Catalina. Even tried the app Adreniline which is supposed to block all power saving. Stumped after a lot of work to get this far. EFI attached. The AppleIntel...kext worked when in L/E, maybe some of the OC kexts need to be there too? I used iMac17,1 for the SMBIOS after MacBookPros had USB problems, USB works great now using USBPorts.kext, fixed trackpad.

think this should be disabled with Big Sur:
