Preliminary support for Big Sur #308
Conversation

thank you @osy86 for your job |
Include OOB update for Lilu to support it
|
Got AMD GPU working. There's a macOS bug where a NULL pointer dereference in the Metal driver makes WindowServer crash. Also, the random screen flashes was fixed by Apple! I tested with both a LG 4K and LG 5K UltraFine TB3 display. Unfortunately, the pixelated Metal bug requires usermode patching which Lilu does not support yet. Once that is working in Lilu, I can port it to Polaris22Fixup. Big Sur introduced a lot of changes to dylibs and it requires some significant work. |

We are upgrading the system. We will let you know the answer later @osy86 |
Fantastic work @osy86! You make our Hades Canyon(s) shine 👏 Regarding testing, I am using Big Sur Beta 2 (20A4300b). I have noticed general graphical glitches using the Installer you provided. I have a 4K monitor. Also, interestingly, now HDR is showing as an option, which was not available before 🤔 :
I will be upgrading to the latest Beta later today or over the weekend, but I really wanted to try the Installer straight away 😃 Let me know if you want me to do any further testing, as I am not sure what else to test... Thank you so much for everything man! P.S. I disable SIP as I am running itlwm with my Intel AC-9260. Works flawlessly with HeliPort! |

Yes see above

@osy86: Thank you for the explanation. I did not know that this was already a known bug. I successfully updated to Beta 4 (20A5343i). Is there anything you would like me to test? General usability looks fluid to me, apart from the known graphical glitches. I might have to disable Turbo Boost again manually, like I did under Catalina. I do not like the fans spinning continuously every time I boot or open Chrome. The trackpad works flawlessly with Bluetooth kext as well. I have noticed that one Ethernet port just shows as "ethernet". I presume this is because of itlwm?
Let me know if you want me to try anything at all on my machine. Might I ask whether the Installer will work with Catalina retrospectively? Or will it be Big Sur-only going forward? I would like to see an option to Disable SIP (Big Sur value is different from Catalina) from the checklist, as well as itlwm (alpha stage now!). Do you think you could implement that for the upcoming release? P.S. I am currently typing from Beta 4. |

Installer should work with 10.14, 10.15, and 11. Disable SIP works like on Mac (go into recovery os) |
|
Latest update fixes the tiling bug but the implementation has a race condition so currently it only works in verbose boot. I will try to come up with a fix that is more stable. |
how's the performance for the wifi ?, is it possible include these in the installer as optional support ? in 2.4G mode and 5G mode |
|
Thanks for your job，It is great，and when does the HaC Mini 2.11 release to push？？？ |
|
Thanks you !! |

@willy880305 it works fine for me. Was able to detect my Apple keyboard and connect to it. |
|
@osy86: Do I just need to update the Polaris22Fixup or do I have to re-download the whole installer? Let me know so I can try with the latest push commits. |
|
Either is fine. Easier to rerun the installer. |
|
Your Bluetooth is BCM94360CS2 too? |
|
Yes, same bluetooth. Beta 5 works fine for me. Make sure you've downloaded the latest package. I've just released v2.11 |
As macOS 11.0 is still in Beta, do not expect everything to work. This should get the most basic parts working.
