The driver was forced by "WebDriver All Versions app" and was an old one : 378.10.10.10.15.114 The 78O is supported but laggy . I didn't test with a real app. But the pref pane was ok and i could load it at startup.
I've got signed apps that are 5 years or older on my Mac. They all still launch fine.
I was able to boot with nv_disable=1 forcing vesa, without needing safe mode...for many days.
I think I can’t make a patched os with 17g1404 , can’t find any complete install . No update possible on a patched OS .ONLY THE ONE THAT PATCH MAKE . I’m on 17G66 and trying to go for 17g65
There is utility I've mentioned before that helps you to ovveride build version in webdriver install package, did you tried it?I fact I do need 17G65 instead of 17G66 because of webdriver , as it was before my system make me get crazy
sorry . Wich one ? OVeride buils version of webdriver or OSX ? OFr the 17G65 I need a specific webdriver ... so ...
Yeah that's how you get Vesa in normal mode but that's more difficult. So it looks like my laziness led to a beneficial discovery without me even realizing until now.
Sorry but I neither understand your English overall; nor which kind of patched OS you are forced to use; nor why exactly.
Try this, it will allow you to change build version requirments within the webdriver installer (and much more)
You mean this?
Ok and what about 17G65 osx build that need a specific webdriver. It will do the trick if I can install it . SO tomorrow. My problem I repeat is the OS now. I cannot install the HS you're speaking about .
Today I didn't succed to . I Made mistake I'm sure with safe mode etc with the process
Thank u . I’m off now … I don’t know the time in your location but here it’s 9pmNo need for safe mode or whatever... download the driver... follow those 4 lines from github to get the tool ready... run the tool and patch the driver... I can do it in the minute and post it here but you might need to trust it so I think it's better if you do it by yourself

Probably because Apple gave nVidia the finger way back when 10.14 was released in the first place and refused to sign their drivers for any OS newer than High Sierra. That’s the only reason we’re in this mess, according to nVidia. Then again, they could be lying and just never made a newer driver...
