## Page was mostly copied from MacBookPro8-1/Natty ||<>|| == MacBook Pro 8,1 / 8,2 / 8,3 (2011 Macbook Pro) Ubuntu 13.04 == This page is a stub for beginning work on describing the process of getting a 2011 MacBookPro working in Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) (latest stable release since 25 April 2013). This work is derived from the page that describes setup for the [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro8-1/Natty MacBook Pro on Natty Narwhal]]. Please note that before going through any of the suggested fixes for this hardware, or installing any additional drivers, please make sure you '''RUN UPDATE MANAGER''' first and apply all updates to the system. You can find out what model you have by typing at the terminal:<
> {{{ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name }}} If you have a different model, please go [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages|here]] and find the right wiki. == Overview == As of this writing, various extended hardware in the MBP needs additional work to function correctly in Ubuntu.

> == Sensors == Documentation needed. == Suspend == Works fine out-of-the-box, == Screen == The resolution is right recognised, the LED-backlit works properly. == Colors == Documentation needed. == Reboot == Works without any specific configuration. == Video == === 13-inch === '''Intel HD Graphics 3000''' <
> Works out of the box. === 15-inch and 17-inch === Need Docs == HFS+ == HFS is mounted as Read-Only. By turning [[http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2355|journaling]] off in OS X, the HFS+ file system will be read/write under Linux. This is the recommended solution if you need read/write access to your OS X partition. It's also possible to mount HFS+ journaling-enabled volumes using the "-o force,rw" option though this is extremely risky. Leaving the HFS's journaling turned on you're not able to access it as root. == Cd&Dvd == 8,1: Works fine out-of-the-box, == Bluetooth == 8,1: Works fine out-of-the-box == Keyboard == 8,1: Works fine out-of-the-box == Touchpad == Works fine out-of-the-box. You will need to Enable Two-finger Scrolling in: System Settings -> Mouse & Trackpad Unity supports multitouch with this funcs: * 1 finger * move = move the cursor; * click = "your-favourite-hand"-click; * 2 fingers * move = vertical/horizontal scrolling; * click = "2nd-button"-click; * 3 fingers * move = move the window and shows resizing options; * 4 fingers * move = show/hide the launcher (horizontal-scroll); * single-tap = show the dash. == FireWire == Works out of the box for at least an external Firewire 400 drive. == Battery == Need docs. == Ethernet == 8,1: Works out-of-the-box == Wireless == 8,1: Ubuntu recognized the driver as "Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver source bcmwl-kernel-source" for Broadcom BCM4331. Installed Proprietary driver, works like a charm. === Fallback method === If you have a fallback method, please update and post. :) == Webcam == The FaceTime HD Camera works out-of-the-box == CardReader == Works with a standard SD card and SDHC card, not tested with SDXC card. == Sound == '''8,1''' <
