Security Update 2015-003 1.0

[innoc]

Hello!

Can I get a little help please? I've just updated this via Mac App store, I installed the cuda and the web os driver as well but I have a little problem. The "About Mac" window does not show correct info about my gpu and the "System report" doesn't too. I have a GTX 780 and it says that I have "Nvidia Chip Model 128 MB". Everything is working actually but this thing is really annoying.

Waiting for reply

Same issue as @innoc, after the upgrade, shows me "Nvidia Chip Model 128 MB". In my case, I have the Nvidia GTX 760 2GB with the native drivers.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Just use the new Nvidia Web Driver to solve the "issue"

Yeah, solved it for me, now the GPU info is displayed correctly, thank you very much!

I seem to be having an odd issue with this update. I cloned my boot drive to another drive and verified a successful boot with it, but after applying the update and installing the new web driver I can't get back into OSX unless I boot with a -f variable to ignore caches. Without the variable I get a rectangle and the circle with a slash though it. If I boot in verbose mode I see the system hang on "still waiting for root device". System boots fine with -f otherwise. Is there a way to permanently purge the caches? Or am I doing something else wrong?

I would like to get to the bottom of this issue with my spare drive before deploying the update on my main drive.

Is there a way to revert to the previous kernel (10.10.2 without SU-003) without reinstalling?

I solved my problem with "-np-zp" kernel flag at boot time (or in com.apple.boot.plist).

Kernel
If your system requires a patched kernel in order to provide enhanced support for X99 systems, it may need to be re-patched. You may need to boot into the UniBeast installer in order to use the Terminal to re-patch the kernel. Please follow the instructions here for full details:

My system will not run the update, it just freezes or in other words shows no status progress? I'm on a X99 system. So, I'm wondering if it will not run because of the patched kernel. I wish I was re-patching my kernel but, I can't seems to install. Has anyone else been able to install the security patch on a X99 to confirm my issue is not related? Best Regards, Brian

Sound disappeared since this security update

Edit: I had to mute/unmute, just regulating the volume up and down was not enough.

Hey guys,

I'm freaking out here ... everything is gone after I did the update and I don't know what to do ... (And obviously I have no backup because I'm an idiot)

After installing the update, I restarted and here is what happened:

- Issues with the keychain so I had to reset the password
- Icons in the sidebar disappeared, I no longer have anything to access Documents, Movie, Desktop... etc ...
- When I'm on finder and use the shortcut cmd+shift+d to access my desktop folder it says "The operation can't be completed because the item can't be found"
- I can't launch dropbox (probably because it can't find the folder either)
- My preferences for mouse (like scrolling natural disabled or sensibility) are gone
- I just realized that one of my partition's Mount point (in disk utility) was changed (which is probably the cause of many issues)

Quick note: the way I installed everything is I have my boot on an SSD and all my folders set to a second hard drive (for documents, movie, music etc.) The only thing in SSD is the boot and the application folder.

Did I do something wrong? Does anybody know what I should do before throwing myself out the window?

Thanks a lot for your help
David'

EDIT: Sorry for the panic... After researching a bit I actually found out that the real issue was the new mount point. Here is what I did.

When I went in Disk utility, I saw that the mount point name changed from Library to Library 1. They call it Ghost Mount point. What you need to do is:

- First, back up anything that is in both volumes in case something goes wrong
- Then, you need to remove the ghost mount point (The mount point with -1 at the end is not necessarily the ghost that you need to remove). Check the size of both and the smaller one is likely to be the one causing problems.
- Go in your terminal and login as super user (type 'su' and then your password)
- Then type 'cd /Volumes'
- In my case, the ghost was 'Library' so I did: 'mv Library /Volumes/AnotherDisk
- I rebooted and everything was fine.

I hope I helped and again sorry for the panic attack.

Best
David
