[solved] Cursor lags at startup

[demimontalto]

Hello, it's me again

After I updated to 10.12.3 (and now to 10.12.4) I've been experiencing cursor lags for like 10-30 seconds at start-up or wake, after that, it goes smooth as it should be.

I used to fix this with IntelBacklight method for backlight in 10.12.2, since now it has changed, the issue is back.
What to do?

Make sure you provide an ioreg that shows external monitor connected...
Also, be sure to specify external port as HDMI vs. DP.

The ioreg shows the framebuffer not patched...
You entered the patch incorrectly.

I am using clover configurator under "kext to patch", or should I edit the plist itself?
Am I supposed to include thos '<>' before the numbers? Because they turn into 00)

You can use either. But you have to enter the data correctly. You entered the wrong data (you should have used copy/paste).
The < > characters are used by Xcode when entering binary/hex data. You would not see/use them in CC.
