Huckleberry Pie Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Why don't you try it and find out? What about the SMBIOS definitions? Should it be set to a certain MacPro def, e.g. MacPro13,1 or something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhuangzi23 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Anyone else having a slowish boot? In Yosemite is was very quick. Since upgrading to El Cap it's now ~2 minutes. I'm on a q77m-d2h mobo and gtx 970. No, sorry . boot is super fast. and, is your user icon from yar's revenge or is that from galaga? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Graphic Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Hi! 345.03.01b07 working El Capitan 15B30a <key>NVDARequiredOS</key> <string>15B</string> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le0nardwashingt0n Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 No, sorry . boot is super fast. and, is your user icon from yar's revenge or is that from galaga? Not sure, just found the icon somewhere online and liked it. Would be cool if it was from galaga though. Glad to hear that fast boot is possible. Now just to figure it out. Update: I did a fresh 10.11 install from the integrated graphics with my video card physically removed. After 10.11 was booting properly (ie very fast), I installed the webdrivers, adjusted my config.plist, shutdown, and reinstalled the gpu. Booted up much faster than before but I'm still getting the black screen with progress bar in the bottom left hand corner. For whatever reason the boot slows when I do an update. It's working great now, thanks for the motivation!1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asgorath Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 guys i can't install the driver ? saying not supported what should i do... There is no driver for 15B30a. You can either wait until NVIDIA releases one, go back to El Capitan GM, or hack the El Cap GM driver to match your OS version. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micky1979 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 go back to El Capitan GM, or hack the El Cap GM driver to match your OS version. or change back the "ProductBuildVersion" to "15A284" in /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist..

levifig Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 or change back the "ProductBuildVersion" to "15A284" in /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist.. Or install with Pacifist… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsusFreak Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Pacifist doesn't help squat if you don't modify the build number... All you accomplish is bypassing the OS version check and installing a version that still doesn't work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can install with Pacifist and then change the version check on the kext itself… I've been doing it since 10.11.1 beta with no problems. No editing anything else.

Micky1979 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 still not working hehe just could install the update.. then, open /System/Library/Extensions/NVDAStartupWeb.kext/Contents/Info.plist and change back "NVDARequiredOS" to 15B30a and the same on /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist. Repair the permission. NB Try to do this only if you are able to re-start OSX if anything goes wrong. Or if you have another OS to put everything in place. .. so i can't use this driver and have to wait after all ? Well, I guess, I think that if you were in 10.11, and had installed these drivers version, then in 10.11.3 would not work anyway. Try to do as I said (only if you are able to recover in the event of problems on reboot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have a compelling reason to use this, maybe you'd be best served by sticking to the GM release and the NVIDIA web driver for that version?

david_osx Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 indeed i don't know how the lol update turned up in the App Store and i installed it anyway i don't know how to go back to gm either to be honest i hate to reinstall everything if that is whats required but anyway thanks for the previous suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My recommendation is to just get back to the GM version and stick with those going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
