Apple right back at Nvidia again. Well, it seems that the Side Car option is not going to work with Nvidia cards.
Unless the reason why the option refuses to load or work with a Nvidia card its because we are still on early PB1.
But I think that Apple is using another strategy to forced whatever is left of Nvidia users,
in others words, giving them a another reason to switch to AMD.
If you want Side Car to work and if you want to use the feature, then get a AMD card.
Mr. Tim Cook at his best.
The only way I get, show mirroring options in the menu bar to load in catalina, is by disabling the Nvidia card.
That will make the mirror option appears in the menu bar, but then I only get 7mb in About My Mac which disables graphic acceleration.
When I don't use nv_disable to load the card the normal way, then I get 2 GB in About My Mac. But then the mirror option refuses to load or to appears on the menu bar.
Weird right?
Well, if this problem is not because is an early beta "a bug", then I'm sure this is being done on purpose by Apple.
That feature might not work with Nvidia cards even if the card has support for everything else in the system is like Nvidia is being excluded from the feature.
Really not a surprise here.
I will love to see how this story end when apple finally releases Catalina.
Will a Nvidia card would work with the side card feature or not?
I'm sure a AMD card will work just fine.

We ask Adobe to make this thing fast but they never got back to us.
It seems like history repeating itself.
