Honestly I was well aware of this warning, but I don't need the Thunderbolt ports and everything else has been fine until 11.5, so I didn't think this could have been the cause of my problem.
Probably add some extra warning in Post 1 so that people who don't use TB may also pay more attention?
Thanks. I didn't realize I could downgrade bios by simply flashing the older one. After switching to F9i, the USB errors in dmesg disappeared, and the system (11.5) has been up for 2 hours without freezing. Looks good so far, but will report back if the problem reoccurs.
I'm very certain my XhciPortLimit is disabled (and to clarify I do use the 'standard EFI' of this thread). I also read about https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/usb/ but thought your SSDT files have taken care of this, so I did not create my own USB map.
I have also tried to unplug...
I run into the same issue with 11.5. Random freezing regardless of load. Sometimes a few minutes after login, sometimes 1-2 hours. Clean re-install of 11.5 also froze. I used a 11.2.3 installer and succeeded, left overnight and didn't freeze. Upgraded to 11.5 next morning and the symptom...
I use Gigabyte 5700 XT Gaming OC. With iMac19,1, sleeping seems to work fine. With iMacPro1,1, it wakes up immediately after going to sleep.
Freezing after 5-6 minutes idle happens to me too regardless of SMBIOS. Disabling WEG fixes it (i believe someone else previously mentioned this too).
