Help needed -- Yosemite + Nvidia Quadro 5000m -- Solved
I have a Dell M6500 Laptop with 16 GB of ram. I had it set up with triple boot ( Well still do ) Set up with Windows 10, LXLE Linux and Yosemite all of which worked perfectly.
Recently the Quadro FX 3800m which it had when I bought it, went bad. I replaced the card with a Quadro 5000m 2 GB card......which let me squeeze another 2-4 years out of this machine........ except, while it was simply a matter of upgrading graphics drivers with Windows & Linux I expected Yosemite to be more difficult. In this regard I certainly haven't been disappointed.
While I'd like to achieve Nvidia Web driver/Native support ........at this point I'd be happy just get it accelerated at all.
I tried sideloading the Wb drivers via Paragon after discovering the built in apple nvidia drivers were causing a blackscreen during the boot process....... but those don't seem to work......at this point ...... I'm a bit lost.......
