Yep. NVidia's drivers stopped working, too. Been waiting for them to update for a few days now. Still no word.

Spot on brosmonaut - I was beta testing KeyShot version 6 with Nvidia web drivers, had to do a new install because of some issues and all of a sudden I was getting the dreaded "This driver does not support this version of OS X ", I don't think we will get an updated driver for Mavericks either, Yosemite has had something like 4 updates to Web Drivers since launch whilst Mavericks has had none for quite some time now.

Found a temporary solution for this.

Inside /System/Library/Extensions/NVDAStartup.kext/Contents/Info.plist you can edit the required OS to the one you have installed right now (13F1096) and it will work.

Code:
                        <key>NVDARequiredOS</key>
                        <string>13F1096</string>

I just did this in Terminal:

Code:
sudo cp -a /System/Library/Extensions/NVDAStartup.kext ~/Documents # just a backup copy
sudo cp -a /System/Library/Extensions/NVDAStartup.kext ~/Desktop
cd ~/Desktop
sudo vim NVDAStartup.kext/Contents/Info.plist # change the version string under the NVDARequiredOS key here and save

After that, run Kext Beast (can be downloaded from this site). It will properly install all the kexts you have in your ~/Desktop to /S/L/E. Once you reboot, you can use the driver again.

Fails here :(

Opened up the file after copying it to the desktop and had no such key, so added it and gave the required version, used kext.beast to update/install the edited kext, restarted the computer and no difference, refuses to install the web drivers .... I am going for good sulk now :)
