Yeah, it would be really good if the mods maybe put a news item on the front page for this as it feels more like "10.12.7" than just a security update. It looks like no matter what graphics option you've got, something bad will happen.
I sorted my issues out I think. Rule 1 for me now should probably be to "update all your kexts" (kind of a pain tracking them all down, but OK) before an update of the OS, no matter how minor. The ALC kext was causing a panic which persisted with a Lilu update. After removing the ALC kext, no panic, but also no graphics (protip: screen sharing seems to work just fine with totally busted graphics - ping/ssh/screenshare before assuming the box is locked up). After that, finding a new IntelGraphicsFixup kext was needed. And then finally realizing that Lilu and IntelGraphicsFixup kexts both need to be in /Library/Extensions (not clover's kext dirs). Still haven't tried a new ALC kext, but I assume that will bring my audio back.
edit: and now I have sound again. Also the ALC kext isn't listed in tonymac's directory, this is the github repo for it: https://github.com/vit9696/AppleALC/releases
It's been known around the community for a while now that if you ever do a security update you will have to also update the nvidia graphics driver build accordingly. Changing just the build number will eventually lead to instability and kernel panics. This is "hackintosh" 101. It's better to just wait for nvidia to drop a new build which is usually within 48 hours of the security update. As far as any "unsupported" graphics driver, you're pretty much on your own when it comes to updates. They were never designed to work and can expect problems in the future when updating. It's always best to build according to supported chipsets.

So you install an old driver and it's working??
Be careful it broke my 10.12.6 which was running well!Just saw this pop up in the App Store. Anyone know the build number or if Nvidia drivers are working? Any other issues?
