> {{{ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name }}} <

> == 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]] Basically everything installed, and configured automatically. == Function Keys == The function keys require you to hit 'fn + F1' to get the F1 key. If not you will get the brightness decrease. == Suspend == So far, I haven't found a way to suspend using the nouveau driver :( You must open '''Software & Updates''' and go to the '''Additional Drivers''' tab I use nvidia-331 (version 331.38) which works well for suspend and resume. The left Panel in Unity is garbled upon resume, but is fixed immediately after you open the Dash or use a Launcher. Suspend uses virtually no battery, and wakes up very quickly! == External Monitor == You need either a DVI to VGA adapter, or a monitor that uses [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVI|DVI]]. == Microphone == You have to go to the '''Sound Settings''' in the '''Sound Menu''' and choose '''Input''' and select ''Microphone'' from the list to turn on the internal Mic. Getting Jack to recognize the Mic port instead of the internal mic doesn't work out of the box. I will post how to do this when I have time to find out :) ---- [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CategoryMac|CategoryMac]] ---- <
