Report your NVIDIA Web Driver and CUDA issues and I'll pass them on to the developers

A workaround is, in general, at the cost of losing features compared to a fix. Any clue ?
Can't fix someone else's closed-source driver, only Apple + NVIDIA can do that. Should give them a very good foothold should they choose to do so.

LOL, yep !
 
I've been able to reproduce image (PNG and GIF for sure; seems to involve transparency and animation) corruption on 10.13.4 with the latest Webdriver and NvidiaGraphicsFixup in Chrome/Chromium/Electron apps on Maxwell/Pascal cards, but I can't confirm it on Kepler . . . Anyone else have any ideas?

Corruption does not occur on AMD or pre-Maxwell cards it seems . . . I don't think it's the fault of vit's new patches in NvidiaGraphicsFixup, but it might be something that needs to be tweaked for Maxwell/Pascal in NvidiaGraphicsFixup or Shiki to account for Chrome/Chromium/Electron apps and their weirdness . . . or it could just be a fault in the driver . . .

I might have to roll back to the old driver because of this...and maybe, restore ma 10.13.3 backup because eI cant get my external USB3 drives working (but, thats another problem).

If you do roll back to the 104 Nvidia driver and/or 10.13.3, please do let us know what you did and if it resolved the image corruption issue . . . Looking for more information on whether it's a new 10.13.4 issue or an issue with the 387.10.10.10.30.103 Nvidia driver or an issue with recent Chrome/Chromium/Electron or some combination there in . . .
 
New driver just released that I hear should help on the UI lag issue: 387.10.10.10.30.106
It also supposedly fixes some occasional color artifacts I've seen show up in windows especially in the Finder (on my GTX 970 at least).

Let's see how it works. :)
 
Hi all!

I managed to get connected with the guys over at NVIDIA responsible for the ”Web Drivers” (and CUDA) that is required to get their Maxwell and Pascal GPUs to work in macOS. Since these drivers differ from the ones built-in to macOS I thought it would be great if we could report issues directly to NVIDIA. But of course it would have to be in a structured and reproducible manner.

So, please try to make clear reports so I can reproduce them (if I can get hold of the software you use that is…).

I currently don't have access to a Pascal GPU, but I have a Maxwell (GTX 970) in a ”real” Mac Pro (Mid 2010) and also a MacBook Pro 15" (Late 2013) that has a GeForce GT 750M so I can rule out any Hackintosh related issues when trying to reproduce your reports. The great thing with the MacBook Pro is that it can use both the macOS built-in graphics drivers and the Web Drivers – good for testing if the issue occurs in both drivers or not.

So, bring it on! :)
I'm forced to run 378.10.10.10.25.106 patched via nvidia-update on 10.13.4.

The following drivers are too laggy/glitchy:
387.10.10.10.25.156
387.10.10.10.25.157
387.10.10.10.25.158
387.10.10.10.25.159
387.10.10.10.25.160
387.10.10.10.25.161

The two latest drivers break OpenGL only while using dual GPUs:
387.10.10.10.30.103
387.10.10.10.30.106

...if I remove one GPU and only use one, OpenGL works.

P.S. Everything worked fine in El Cap. I never was on Sierra so I can't say. The nightmare began in H.S.

EDIT - xpzone has the exact same issue with running two 1070's, but one works fine for him.

That's interesting that it worked in El Cap, but I'm not sure if Nvidia will do anything about dual GPU problems since it's very Hackintosh specific. :) I guess it wouldn't hurt to mention it, though…
