Hi,

The stable release stops working when I install the latest Nvidia driver (346.01.01f01) on Mac 10.10.2.
The plug-in no longer seems to see the card.

Thanks,

Lance

Then don't install the latest driver ;) As a rule of thumb: If your system works fine with your current driver setup, then don't change it.

I don't know, but my guess why it doesn't work anymore is that you have to install a matching CUDA driver. I assume one of the CUDA 7 drivers should work: http://www.nvidia.com/object/mac-driver-archive.html
