macOS 10.14 Mojave on Unsupported Macs Thread

No acceleration. My GTX 970 runs like trash on latest BETA along with GTX 1060.
Edit: This is only until nvidia releases the Web Drivers or a port is created for the High Sierra ones.
[doublepost=1531158791][/doublepost]What’s the status of the Nvidia GeForce 9400M? That would add a lot of laptops to the list of supported devices.
Question about Metal: Will the Nvidia GeForce 9400M run Metal apps? The iPastel (version 3) app now requires Metal and doesn't run correctly on a Mac mini 3,1 patched High Sierra. Figured it might be the same for Mojave.
The new update to Mojave Patcher is now available, fixing the boot hang issue when using the latest installer app. Download available here.
I'm successfully running Mojave on my Mac Mini 5,1. One question, is there a way to get the updates normally, or will I have to reinstall Mojave betas as the updated versions are released?
@dosdude1 I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 working with the first Mojave Patcher using Mojave Public Beta 1, how to I update to Public Beta 2 or DB3?
Thanks !
With the Software Update Patch included with the latest version of the Mojave Patcher tool, you should be able to install updates normally.
Thank you! Also, I'm sure this is beta related but my bluetooth doesn't seem to work properly anymore, any idea if its a module incompatibility issue or just plain software issue? It detects my mouse when I try to connect, but when I click connect it blinks in the list as if appearing and disappearing.
These are the kext needed for Tesla Geforce 320m taken from S/L/E of any High Sierra installation:
NVDANV50HalTesla.kext
NVDAResmanTesla.kext
IONDRVSupport.kext
IOGraphicsFamily.kext
GeForceTesla.kext
GeForceGA.bundle
GeForceTeslaGLDriver.bundle
GeForceTeslaVADriver.bundle
I have highlighted them in this way:
Safe (if you made a wrong install of these kexts doesn't affect booting)
Dangerous (if you don't install properly you risk to stuck on verbose mode or with a filled apple progress bar)
KP (till now this kext bundle produces a kernel panic and give QE/CI, if you don't install it you will boot fine with the others)
Hello everybody! Forgive that through an interpreter.
Installation is excellent, the patcher works. But the launch and booted the desktop and after a couple of minutes goes into reboot. I sin that the video card is connected. Nvidia GeForce 9300M GS
In Bigt Sierra works. If you copy the kext, nothing helps.

Thanks. I'll just keep a Sierra partition on my 2009 Mac minis. Note: High Sierra patched didn't identify this an incompatible app so watch updating in the future.
Ok just downloaded your new Patcher app 1b4 downloaded Mojave beta using the Toolbar downloader, created USB installer, and the whole thing crapped out mid installation. Mac Pro 3.1 Nvidia GT 120 512Mb card.
This was over a previous install of PB1 using Patcher 1b3 which was glitchy graphically but was an installation.
Now th installation does not happen.
Try using this, place to /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreDisplay.framework/Versions/A
Then execute:
Reboot & test. You may consider to disable SIP via RecoveryHD first. Good luck.sudo rm -f /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelcache && sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u / && sudo update_dyld_shared_cache -force
Has anybody tried this yet? If not, I will.
Edit: I see from this page that this is a patched file for Fermi architecture GPUs? What modifications have been made to it and for what purpose?
Hello Tom,
The patcher has been updated and should fonction correctly on machines with Core 2 Duo processors now.
Regards, Julian.
Hello @dosdude1,
Does the Software Update Patch features beta (public/developer) update depending on the build installed?
Thank You.
So I bought a used MSI AMD RX570 graphics card. Wow! I was able to do a regular install on my Mac Pro 5,1 (4,1). Everything works beautifully with full acceleration. Mojave actually runs faster than High Sierra on my system. The only downfall is that there is no boot screen. I can live with that. I did have to enable/force trim on my SSD drive after install.
I also found a sweet spot on my 27-inch screen Cinema Display at 1920x1080 HiDPI. The 2560x1440 native resolution was a little too small for my eyes. At 1920x1080 HiDPI, everything looks sharp and crip (especially text).
When Mojave comes out, I will seriously consider upgrading my CPUs. I can’t wait.
I´m onto something different but if that does not lead (closer) to success, the CoreDisplay replacement will be next and can even be combined with my current experiments. More in a few clicks...
