Have been eying a MacBook Air 15-in (M2), and wondering on the possibility of running Linux on it. Anyone had success, or failure, on doing this themselves? And, how hard will it be to port this M1 GPU driver to the M2?
- gorbypark 3y agoI am running Asahi on a 13” MacBook Air M2. The only real show stoppers are that the speakers and sleep/hibernation don’t work. Otherwise completely usable. WiFi, Bluetooth and all they keyboard functions like setting screen brightness work. There is no support for TouchID, either, which is somewhat obvious. In my opinion it’s ready to be a daily driver if you can stand using Arch or Fedora. I’m waiting for a Debian version, personally (there’s some instructions on getting it going already but I haven’t tried yet).
- terhechte 3y agoThe article says: "Conformant OpenGL® ES 3.1 drivers are now available for M1- and M2-family GPUs"
- samtheprogram 3y agoPretty sure sleep still doesn't work, unless the Asahi wiki FAQ / Wiki is out of date. Bit of a deal breaker for me until then.
