I use Hammerspoon, for total control how my windows behave amongst other things, like setting the luminosity when I get home (vs. work, on my laptop), take a coffee break, etc. Limitless automatization and no lag issues. For example, I want my Safari browser window to be sized 1280x1024px and have it displayed in the upper right corner of the screen, at 50px distance from the screen margin.
PRAM reset did the trick. What I find strange is that what I think the entry for my card in SystemParameters.plist (F221BEC8) shows Continuity Support as Disabled. I have verified AirDrop, Apple Watch Unlock and Handoff are all working.
I'm not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but I have the Mac Pro 5,1 and my USB ports are glitchy with the keyboard and mouse if unplugged. If they are plugged back in after being unplugged, they stop working. It required a full restart in order to make them work again. I read about this issue on another thread, but their edit to the
config.plist resulted in my machine not booting. Just curious if anyone else had this issue and was able to fix it. Or maybe the edit to the config.plist needed some sort of device ID or something.
Yes that is how the cMP operates in Big Sur so far. If you plug them to a USB hub it should fix it.
For reference, I got bored, made a bootable backup of my Catalina drive, and took the plunge. Everything works except I can't reboot into Big Sur directly from Mojave, I have to bounce to Windows and use the Boot Camp boot selector.
That is not entirely true, there is a problem, but it is not general, Big Sur works perfectly for me.
Can you disconnect/reconnect the USB keyboard or mouse in the back/front USB ports without loosing functionality? Are you using any SMBIOS spoofing?
I have a GTX680 and DRM playback is currently not working so it's unlikely that it would work with your card. Everything else seems to work as it should.
I had two odd USB experiences with Big Sur: (1) on my workstation the Sonnet 4-port USB3.2 card won't be recognized on a warm boot, only after doing an SMC reset cold boot; and (2) on my media server the CyberPower UPC is unrecognized in any native USB2.0 port, yet is recognized in a PCIe USB3.0 port, but it causes the machine to spontaneously shut down.
Remove that Windows SSD and make sure that OpenCore install is booting the system. If all is well select that macOS as the default boot in system prefs. Power down then return the Windows disk and boot as normal. You want to be sure that your rom is protected correctly. If you have blessed OpenCore correctly you'll want to make sure the default disk is set prior to the reboot. This keeps OpenCore from randomly looking for a bootable device. I found that macOS looks backwards. Slot 4, 3, 2, 1 then SATA.
In Windows install mini tool partition Wizard. Mount the EFI partition of the Windows drive.
I have an aluminum apple USB keyboard (connected to rear ports) + Magic Trackpad. Everything works as it should.
I am having issues as well. Not due to unplugging though, mouse/keyboard (same usb) just die. When I remove USB to slot next to it (back panel) it works again (hot swop). When it dies again (once a day or so) I hot swop it back and its OK again. Using the config from HWAccel thread. Definitely something weird here and must be related to Big Sur somehow. Never had this issue with Catalina and same OC config.
Maybe the aluminum USB keyboard does not have this issue as implied in the previous comment?
I had the same issue, the fix was simple for me. All I had to do is make sure the OC Big Sur was selected into macOS Startup Disk option, by default they would be all greyed out and Windows will always be picked. You can also set
MISC/Security/AllowSetDefault to True, to set the default Startup disk to whatever you pick in OpenCanopy.AllowSetDefault allows CTRL+Enter and CTRL+Index handling to set the default boot option in boot picker. I'm curious if the related Startup disk is still greyed out in macOS, once we set the default boot option.
Could be really anything, like an OC configuration error, but it's common to find MP4,1>5,1 that are missing hardwareIDs inside the BootROM.
Did you do any other SMBIOS spoofing apart from board-d? If you changed the serial number/s that may happen.
I have a GTX680 flashed with a Mac ROM to support EFI and an Apple boot screen. It is working fine in both Mohave and Catalina. I haven't used Display Port in a while (I was having some issues with my DP to miniDP adapter) but am now using an HDMI to miniDP adapter to drive my Apple Cinema Display.
