<p>So what this SSDT does is create a PNLF device for macOS to play with, specifically one with a hardware ID of <code>APP0002</code>. WhateverGreen will handle the rest of the work</p>
<p>No configuration required for most, just drop the prebuilt file into your EFI:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/dortania/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/blob/master/extra-files/SSDT-PNLF.aml" target="_blank">SSDT-PNLF</a><ul>
<li>For most users</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://i.applelife.ru/2019/12/463488_SSDT-PNLFCFL.aml.zip" target="_blank">SSDT-PNLFCFL</a><ul>
<li>For Coffee Lake and newer</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Note: there are some rare cases where the iGPU is called <code>GPU0</code> or <code>VID</code>in the DSDT, you can double check by searching for <code>PCI0.GFX0</code>, <code>PCI0.VID</code> and <code>PCI0.GPU0</code>. Whichever shows up is your device</p>
<p>If Windows has been installed on the device, you can also do the following:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-text">Device Manager -&gt; Display Adapters -&gt; Properties -&gt; Details &gt; BIOS device name
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>Note some GPUs may be hiding under &quot;BIOS device name&quot;</li>
</ul>
