== Basic Installation Instructions ==
Common things about installing and maintaining Ubuntu on Intel-based Macs:
[[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation|Intel CPU-based Macintosh Generic Installation Instructions]]

 1. - Resize OS X partition with Disk Utility<<BR>>
 2. - Boot Ubuntu Trusty installation media from USB flash drive<<BR>>
 3. - Run the installer and select to "install alongside OS X"<<BR>>
 4. - Boot into your fresh installation<<BR>>
 5. - Enable the Broadcom wireless drivers (STA) from the "Additional Drivers" dialogue<<BR>>
 6. - Enjoy Ubuntu!<<BR>>

== Wireless (AirPort) ==

{{attachment:IconsPage/restricted.png}}
This required manual installation of the Broadcom STA driver via Jockey, the Additional Drivers program.<<BR>>


== iSight ==

== Touchpad (appletouch) ==
Oddly, a finger tip will not engage mouse pointer movement. Instead, an entire finger segment must be laid down onto the touchpad in order for it to engage.
