Nvidia Drivers for Mojave 10.14 Not Available, no WorkAround works well

[Gigamaxx]

That's what I said -- and AFAIK it is NVIDIA signing them, not Apple. The excuse NVIDIA gave is fake. It is really an annoying situation.

One thing to consider is the kernel “open source”. Apple finally released the source for HS 13.4-13.6 a couple of weeks ago. Maybe Apple hasn’t released the kernel source to them so they can’t write a kernel extension. They may need a Rosetta Stone? And then the issue with xCode 10 not working with Cuda.

Why would they need to have a full kernel source to build a driver kext? How much of the kernel/IOKit API related to kexts has really changed between 10.3.6 and 10.4.0? Aren't those changes documented while the OS is still in beta testing?

As for xCode 10 and CUDA, I don't see what that has to do with working video driver -- CUDA is a separate (and optional) package from the video driver itself.

Cuda is a main reason to use Nvidia for pro apps.

If there wasn’t much change the 13.6 Drivers should work. But they don’t. Apple hasn’t released the source code “openly”. Maybe they have given it to other vendors and held it back for Nvidia?

As someone who needs CUDA acceleration in macOS, am I better off sticking to High Sierra for the foreseeable future? Sure seems like those nVidia drivers aren't coming.

If you need Cuda, you don't have any choice but to stay with High Sierra.

Apple is testing our patience.

Well to me it is new because I didn't really have the time to sift through 27 pages of posts in this thread.

We have already discussed why that Nvidia post makes no sense.

What does Apple have to do with Nvidia not writing drivers?

McDonald's is not responsible for Heinz ketchup. Apple is not responsible for Nvidia drivers.

I'm iOS Developer, What should I do to able to install or upgrade my High Sierra 10.13.6 to 10.14?
Xcode 10 is really important for me.
My graphic card is GTX950

Remove your 950 and enable the integrated Intel UHD graphics.
