driftwood Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 The new 121 driver and CUDA driver works fine with Skylake and Nvidia 1080 ti I can confirm - just a straight forward update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain-j Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 They've pushed out a few minor updates for 10.13, which is promising. 10.13.1 final release is probably next week, so no doubt there'll be a new version of the web drivers not long after that Would be good if they had proper release notes though. I'm still getting weird cursor lag when windows are loading/quitting. Also Firefox doesn't seem to be using the GPU properly (Google Maps is black, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ricoc90 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 For anyone interested: I was bored so I made a little script to patch the webdrivers installer package. This script does two things: - Patch the installer package and gives you the option to install the package right away or - Patch NVDAStartupWeb.kext in /L/E/ (For when you just want to update the OS) How it works: It looks in ~/Downloads/ for any webdrivers installer packages. If more than one package is found, it let's you choose which one you want to patch It grabs the current OS build version, which will be used to patch unless you specify otherwise It will patch the Distribution file by using a simple search and replace method It uses gzip to uncompress the Payload It uses PlistBuddy to set NVDARequiredOS to your current (or manually specified) build version in NVDAStartupWeb.kext It uses gzip to compress the Payload again it uses pkgutil to repack the installer package and puts it in ~/Desktop If you choose so, it installs that package using installer -pkg command Once the installation is done, it repairs kext permissions Optionally it allows you to make a symlink to /usr/local/bin/nvda NVDAWebPatcher.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It allows to unlock driver installation for any osx release (distribution part I mean) But info.plist remains 17A405 in repackaged file Thank you Are you using the first one I made or the second one I made? The first one only modified the distribution file to allow the pkg to be installed on whatever version of OS X you are running the script from. The second one does the same as first but also changes the Payload-Extract/Payload/Library/Extensions/NVDAStartupWeb.kext/Contents/Info.plist to match the system OS X version that the script is running on and repackages it. Found the issue, was a typo in the script try this new one. Nvidia WebDriver:Payload Repackager.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
