State of Linux on the MacBook Pro 2016
Not Working:
• Audio input & output
• Bluetooth
• Keyboard backlight
• Suspend & Hibernation
• Touch ID
• Wi-Fi
- jacquesm 10y agoKernel 4.9 fixes a bunch of those (the Wi-Fi for instance). I've had a similar experience with the Air but it works well with the newer kernels (including the SSD, which was the main problem for me).
- AlgorithmicTime 10y agoBut not the keyboard and touchpad.
- Bluestrike2 10y agoWhen you start getting into Hackintoshes or running non-OSX operating systems on Macs (aside from Windows and Boot Camp), things can get iffy in some situations. That list is pretty nasty, though I'm fairly surprised someone got the damned Touch Bar working for Linux. But if there's one good thing at play, it's that there's a fairly active community that tries to tackle these problems.
- AsyncAwait 10y agoThe 2015 MBP works very well out of the box, the 2016 refresh has a bunch of custom chips, so it's not really surprising.
