I have some problems after the Security update. Installed the new 14F2009 Webdriver but still have no acceleration.

 

Using an GTX Titan Black under Yosemite, boot loader is clover and also added NvidiaWeb to my config.plist because I thought that it is now on all new drivers not only Sierra but without any luck. 

System Definition is MacPro 6,1 also tried to run AGDPFix again and changed also to other system definitions but still no luck. 

 

Anyone any idea?

 

EDIT: FIXED IT!

The AppleGraphicsControl.kext file was broken after the update, found an untouched one which I've added to the Extensions folder and repatched it again with AGDPFix.

...in my installation there is no NVDAStartupWeb.kext to alter.... only NVDAStartup.kext...so I'm a little confused...have the drivers changed?

 

There is no NVDAStartupWeb.kext for Yosemite or Mavericks. This one only exists in El Capitan/Sierra.

 

But the trick is the same for NVDAStartup.kext. Just edit this part of the info.plist :

<key>NVDARequiredOS</key>
<string>14F</string>
