Display port disabled

[keycomputersystems]

Is there are way of fixing the problem where Nvidia-update.sh disables the DisplayPort audio. I did an update to 10.14.3 public beta recently and noticed that the built-in drivers support DisplayPort audio but as soon as I apply the Nvidia-update it breaks.

The NVIDIA Web Driver installed is 387.10.10.10.40.113

nvidia-update just installs official driver packages.

The issue is likely the same one that everyone is facing at the moment i.e. Apple aren't letting nVidia release drivers. Basically the latest nVidia drivers aren't working properly on macOS 10.14, and there's nothing any of us can do about it until nVidia releases updated drivers, but apparently they're waiting on Apple.

Thanks for your quick response Benjamin. I had heard that Apple are dragging their feet a bit. Interesting that the built-in drivers now work. Not sure about acceleration etc but the audio drivers work. Is there are way of uninstalling or un-patching using the Nvidia-update.sh?

There probably ought to be a flag to simply uninstall. Logic to remove drivers is included, however it's only executed when a new set of drivers are set to be installed. If you simply wish to uninstall you can paste the following in a terminal:

UNINSTALL_PKG_PATH="/Library/PreferencePanes/NVIDIA Driver Manager.prefPane/Contents/MacOS/NVIDIA Web Driver Uninstaller.app/Contents/Resources/NVUninstall.pkg"

if [[ -f "$UNINSTALL_PKG_PATH" ]]; then
	printf "\nUninstalling previous drivers...\n"
	sudo installer -pkg "$UNINSTALL_PKG_PATH" -target /
fi

This is actually a code excerpt taken directly from nvidia-update itself.

Thanks Benjamin. That's really helpful. When I get time I'll take a look, it's not high priority as this is a bit of a side project. It would be really good if Apple could open up to Nvidea again thereby giving Pros more choice in the future.
