Regarding supported hardware, anything that previously worked with Nvidia's Web Drivers in High Sierra should work with our patches. Implement Alpha Support for Nvidia Web Drivers #993

Some known drawbacks/issues are listed under issue 108Ĭurrently we have a PR with the alpha patches, however this is primarily for development purposes and not intended for public usage Currently any acceleration on Nvidia Web Drivers is quite a feat, however there's still a long road to developing stable Metal-based patch sets. Nvidia's Web Drivers do support Metal, however all of our previous developments were towards non-Metal systems. Nvidia Tesla, AMD TeraScale, Intel HD3000) However for many drivers, they never made the jump and so were permanently stuck with only OpenGL acceleration (ie. As some may know, Apple transitioned away from OpenGL toward Metal and became mandatory in Mojave and newer. Using the previous patches developed for AMD TeraScale 2, I was able to get a K620 running with full graphics acceleration (with aid from flagers)īefore everyone gets excited for perfect drivers in Monterey, know that there are many draw backs with the currently developed patches. NVIDIA driver for macos catalina Ive been frustrated to find an Nvidia driver for my MacBook Pro (mid-2012 - 15' - non-retina). This includes getting drivers previously removed from the OS back up and running, which almost all of the credit goes to the non-Metal team! After some elbow grease, got a Nvidia Quadro K620 running macOS Monterey on a 2009 Mac Pro!įor those unfamiliar with the work of my colleagues and I, we maintain the OpenCore Legacy Patcher project dedicated to running old Macs on newer macOS builds. UTM employs Apples Hypervisor virtualization framework to run ARM64 operating systems on Apple Silicon at near native.
