Apple security update 2017-001 changes build number disabling nvidia driver - Driver updated!

[adamshumpisxxx]

I used the command "sudo /Users/username/Downloads/webdriver.sh -m 17B1003" and everything works just like it did before the update (after a reboot). Quick question though...I'm still on web driver version 378.10.10.10.20.107 instead of 108. Does that make a difference? I can't update to 108 because the package doesn't run (obviously). Should I just wait for 109 and forget about it for now? Thanks!

Also, does running webdriver.sh have any effect on updating the NVIDIA driver when a new fixed version comes out?

If you like you can download the updated script from the original post (else the following is broken), then

webdriver.sh -p

Open the plist in a text or plist editor and copy the pkg URL. Then you can

webdriver.sh -c -u url

replacing url with the text you copied above. Then

webdriver.sh -m

to have it load on the current build.

No it shouldn't. Also you'll probably be fine with .107 until .109 arrives.

Thanks buddy. I'll stick with 107 then until we get 109. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out or causing future headache. I appreciate it!

Did you run the script with sudo ?
eg : sudo <shell path>./webdriver.sh -m
work fine for me

Worked for me also. Thanks.

Anybody knows what this means?

This doesn't work for me. I need to install the webdriver but it's not the right build number. Anyone know something I can do? I do not have the web driver installed so I cannot apply this fix?

Is there any way to install the web drivers on this new build?

See #66 for bypassing version checks. Download attached here

You can use this script to modify the driver for the new build number.
If you already installed the security update

webdriver.sh -m

After updating, before rebooting for seamless driver support

webdriver.sh -m 17B1002

github repository

edit: 11/30 updated script fixes -m without specifying a build and also check for updates

Hi,

Following your advise I ran the script using:

sudo sh webdriver.sh -m 17B1003

When caches are updating, I get the following:
Kext rejected due to improper filesystem permissions



I disable SIP in config.plist and ran script again and still nothing changes.

Can someone please advise ?

Seems unrelated to Nvidia drivers. Try these

sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions
sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions
sudo kextcache -i /

No drivers for 17B1003 yet? Unfortunately I uninstalled 378.10.10.10.20.107 first, then updated to 17B1003...
WebDriver-378.10.10.10.20.108 doesn't work nor does webdriver.sh

Thank you, though I found an old post you made and followed your advise from there, it worked and script ran successfully. NVIDIA graphics 100%. Sorted awesome!
