I have a mac pro (trash can) and two MBPs (one 13" with retina display). I exclusively run linux distros on all of them and it works great. Just have a $10 linux compatible usb wifi dongle on hand for setup - once you're running you can install the appropriate nonfree broadcom wifi driver.
- jason_slack 9y agoI have the a trash can too. I was considering what to do about that. Can you share what linux distros you are running and an example linux compatible usb wifi dongle?
- newman8r 9y agoI'm running Debian stretch on the mac pro. The following usb wifi dongle seems to have decent linux compatibility but I haven't tried it https://www.amazon.com/Panda-300Mbps-Wireless-USB-Adapter/dp/B00EQT0YK2 https://www.amazon.com/Panda-300Mbps-Wireless-USB-Adapter/dp... There's a lot of tutorials on installing linux distros on macs since there's a few special steps you'll probably have to take. I googled the following tutorial (haven't used it) but it should get you started: https://linuxnewbieguide.org/how-to-install-linux-on-a-macintosh-computer/ https://linuxnewbieguide.org/how-to-install-linux-on-a-macin...
