Hi guys,
I got the split screen after installing the opencore legacy patcher. Does anyone know what can it be?

Intel hd 4000

Laptop t430 - 1366x768

Sorry for late answer. May be will useful for someone.

There is a setting DualLink in Clover config

        <key>Graphics</key>
        <dict>
            <key>DualLink</key>
            <integer>1</integer>

which serves exactly for this purpose.
