Re: [Avid-L2] Can't select Nvidia Driver always defaults back to OS X driver?

While I haven't tested otherwise, it's my understanding that the nVidia web driver is necessary in order to run the Cuda driver.

Correct me if I'm wrong - it would help me if I could run Cuda without the nVidia web driver!
