Does anyone know about any progress about getting the latest Intel Macbooks working on Linux?
I have a 2020 Intel MBA and it "works" as in it boots, but the laptop trackpad and keyboard don't do anything.
Externals work, so it seems like a driver thing.
There could be other problems, but I haven't gotten far enough to hit them because I don't see a point in using it unless the keyboard and trackpad work.
- cmrdsprklpny 5y agoI don't think this works with 2019 or later Intel Macbooks, but as far as I know the most recent relevant information and drivers are here: https://github.com/roadrunner2/macbook12-spi-driver https://github.com/roadrunner2/macbook12-spi-driver. In my own experience, it's the trackpad, keyboard, and built-in speakers that don't work, but everything else seemed to be fine (2015 macbook). Edit: this driver got the keyboard and trackpad to work, but the microphone, speakers, and webcam did not work. I also needed to downgrade to an older kernel (4.14) to get storage to work. All external things worked fine even through a hub, and the headphone jack also worked fine.
