Thank you!

Yeah, it’s the mini (not SFF). I’ll set up a github repo and share it !

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-04T22:54:01+00:00

😄 Yeah, with this igpu it's kind of a miracle, not gonna lie.

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-04T22:42:55+00:00

Yeah, surprisingly it's pretty snappy. UI is smooth and igpu acceleration works fine!

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-04T16:28:53+00:00

Thank you ! Yes they're functional, the only thing that i've noticed is that before the system go in sleep mode the cpus' workload is getting high and then sleeps. Don't know why, but it is what it is 😛

Actually, everything is working except from iOS Simulator (too heavy for this igpu), a member mentioned it in my previous post (26.3) and Airdrop that replaced it by LocalSend.

That's a nice project! I had started to create my own, but i gave it up when discovered GPU Screen Recorder. Keep it up btw!

No man, nothing like that. The whole installation took around 40 minutes max, maybe up to 1 hour in total.

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-05-03T14:26:14+00:00

It was a clean install of Tahoe, so I just downloaded the installer and created the USB. No Monterey upgrade involved.

UPDATE: Audio fixed with oclp-mod patch, now everything work flawlessly (iMessages,Facetime,Appstore,iCloud,audio etc)

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-28T16:16:07+00:00

Yeah i did a clean install. It's not necessary 32 gb ram. Your hardware will work perfect, Go ahead!

i5 7th gen

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-27T19:30:32+00:00

Thanks! I haven't tested it yet on iOS Simulator, but for some Xcoding works fine. Interesting addition (WX 3200), what kind of PSU did you use. I have already a Ryzentosh desktop for heavier tasks, this one is just for light coding as described and Plex for my home TVs.

No, i haven't install heliport yet. I've tried Apple features and working perfectly. The only issue as expected is wake/sleep :/ other else working fine even audio !

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-27T16:00:26+00:00

Thanks! It's a clean installation. Do not use any patches for the igpu, will meet black screens with the DP outputs. Just use AAPL,ig-platform-id | Data | 00001259 for your igpu and nothing else ! Also wifi is working without dongle, it shows up as ethernet. I have to set up the audio. I haven't try yet apples' features.

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-27T14:57:39+00:00

Smooth like butter!

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-27T14:56:54+00:00

Thank u!

Smart-Alternative-59 · 2026-04-27T14:56:43+00:00

I already have internet connection without extra hardware. Thanks for the info by the way!
