thanks a lot, this works when i finally install rEFInd correctly(Installing rEFInd in recovery mode with binary code on Mac os, just as the rEFInd official website suggested)

I installed rEFInd on linux before, and it doesn't work, with just blank screen.

I'm so happy, cause my noisy fan get quiet finally.

THANKS AGAIN, man

I'm planning to get the 11,5 pretty soon for win10/macos dual boot.

Can you connect to an external monitor when on integrated graphics or do you need to enable discrete gfx? Any black/blue screen issues when switching?

Thanks!

I haven't tested that yet, but I remember that the external graphic would turn on automatically when I connected my dell 2515h, but again, I haven't tested it surely in this condition, it was just by my memory. what's more, I noticed that the black screen issues seems fixed by installing rEFInd in this way above. Hoping this can help you.

Are you using Windows 10 in triple boot or just linux and macOS dual boot? I'm unable to see the iGPU in Windows 10 using refind's spoof_os_version, just see black screen when I boot.

Ok thanks. I got it working on windows as well.

How many hours do you get on the battery using iGPU?
