Giving sleep one more try on Big Sur. At least the system now doesn't lock up but immediately wakes (DarkWake so without display) after I touch the keyboard the display turns on and I get the login prompt.

 

In: pmset -g log is see these coming back which seems to be the cause:

And when snooping around in my DSDT I find them back: 

            Device (D0A0)
            {
                Name (_ADR, 0x00010001)  // _ADR: Address
                Method (_PRW, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PRW: Power Resources for Wake
                {
                    Return (GPRW (0x08, 0x04))
                }

                Method (_PRT, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PRT: PCI Routing Table
                {
                    If (PICM)
                    {
                        Return (AG04) /* \_SB_.AG04 */
                    }

                    Return (PG04) /* \_SB_.PG04 */
                }

                Device (D0A7)
                {
                    Name (_ADR, 0xFFFF)  // _ADR: Address
                }
            }

            Device (D0A1)
            {
                Name (_ADR, 0x00010002)  // _ADR: Address
                Method (_PRW, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PRW: Power Resources for Wake
                {
                    Return (GPRW (0x08, 0x04))
                }

                Method (_PRT, 0, NotSerialized)  // _PRT: PCI Routing Table
                {
                    If (PICM)
                    {
                        Return (AG05) /* \_SB_.AG05 */
                    }

                    Return (PG05) /* \_SB_.PG05 */
                }

                Device (D0A8)
                {
                    Name (_ADR, 0xFFFF)  // _ADR: Address
                }
            }

In total there are 64 of these, looks like something CPU related??? Does anybody know of CPU BIOS setting related to sleep?

Still switch to my Proxmox boot now and again. Thought Id load up the Proxmox Catalina Cinebench 23. Here's results. Proxmox has its uses such as certain Intel primed compiled progs like Camtasia, new Davinci 17 (it flies), Adobe all compatible without hacked dylibs...etc...

@Rox67er, what GPU are you using in your hack?  I have the same sleep problem as you do.  And I am using a Radeon VII card, which is known to have sleeping issues...

Welcome here

probably is a problem of your motherboard

Sleep is working fine with radeonVII

in big sur for sure

in catalina some problem

to have success you have to play with your MMIO and bios settings

Use a Sapphire Radeon VII, I also used it in my old Mac Proc 5,1 where sleep was fine. If I look at the pmset -g log it looks like something CPU related.

Are the new versions  Final Cut Pro 10.5, Logic Pro 10.6 and Compressor 4.5 working normally on AMD?

FCP 10.5 is running fine.

@fabiosun: Thanks!  I didn't realize an AMD bare metal hack would have so many problems running my main apps like Photoshop and Davinci Resolve...:-(  I think I need to try a Proxmox install.  Do you mind re-sharing your Proxmox install guide?

For those who dont know you can share the same catalina/bs NVME INSTALL between two different EFIs for Proxmox & bare metal. ie you dont need to have two separate OS X installs.

 

In my case, one EFI on a USB for bare metal, and the Proxmox efi coming off the boot sector on another nvme. Keeps em safe from corruption.

 

But it means if you need Intel 100% compatibility apps like Camtasia (or you dont wanna dylib hax for Adobe/Davinci) you can simply reboot to Proxmox. I can update apps in both environments - within bare metal & proxmox - and when you return to the other u should have no problems and see everything.

 

Of course for Proxmox you'll need a separate usb (e.g. 64gb thumb or an old ssd drive on the sata/ext usb) for its host system files.

 

Life's easy and enjoy the best of both worlds!

 

PS Logic 10.6 works fine on both Cat latest build and Big Sur.

Hmm... The DV version I downloaded this morning was 17.0B1... I will also roll back to Photoshop 21.2.4 and test it... Intel has removed the cpu_type environment variable earlier this year form the MKL library.  I think that's why these patches will not work with newer/future versions of these apps... until we manage to come up with new ways to patch them🤣
