Sierra + GTX950 WebDriver = Black screen again.

[sanigo]

I have patched Clover config.plist to fix the black screen problem, all were ok.
After upgrading to 10.12(Sierra), I installed the new webdriver. The black screen appears again. I can figure out by screen sharing that the Web Driver is selected correctly.
How to fix this now?

What system definition are you using?

Try using AGDPfix.app from that sticky thread. I guess Pike's Clover patch was broken in Sierra.

Yes the Clover patch is not working anymore but AGDPFix v1.3 is working fine.

I do not like to patch kext files, so i changed the SMBIOS to MacPro 6,1, and use ssdt to patch GFX1.
All are ok now.

There's little reason to choose MacPro6,1 on your hardware, iMac14,2 would be a better match & doesn't need any patches at all.

I highly concur! I've used the iMac14,2 with the majority of my systems without any serious problems including my Gene build which uses a GTX 950.

Does hdmi audio work with iMac 14,2?

I don't use it, but others have done so.
