  • Best kernel modules and general setup for a 2017 MacBook Pro?
    1 project | /r/archlinux | 22 Nov 2021
    You don't compile the kernel from scratch to solve this problem normally, or should I say ideally, unless you're referring to aunali1/linux-mbp-arch.
  • Which non-stock kernel do you use? (if any)
    1 project | /r/linux_gaming | 1 Nov 2021
    I have a macbook with the T2 security chip, so a few patches are needed for most of the hardware: https://github.com/aunali1/linux-mbp-arch I dunno if there are many other computers like this where you need patches for hardware compatibility.
  • Upstream integration?
    1 project | /r/linux_on_mac | 26 Oct 2021
    But when I look at the patches to support T2 Macs, most of them haven't even once been submitted to the Linux Kernel Mailing List for review (or am I missing some mail archive?)
  • Boot Macbook to USB Linux
    2 projects | /r/applehelp | 11 Oct 2021
    The specific display issue you’ve described there is probably the one fixed by https://github.com/aunali1/linux-mbp-arch/blob/master/2001-drm-amd-display-Force-link_rate-as-LINK_RATE_RBR2-fo.patch (this patch is in mbp-fedora)
  • Linux on 2019 Macbook air
    2 projects | /r/linuxquestions | 29 Apr 2021
    You need this kernel patch to prevent that overscan. Have a look at https://wiki.t2linux.org for how to get that without compiling the entire kernel.
  • Debian 11 on T2 macs
    3 projects | /r/debian | 15 Apr 2021
    Does anyone happen to have info on how I might get things up and running? I have tried googling, but not finding much specific to Debian. What I have found points to MacBook Bridge/T2 Linux Driver, but my undersanding this is in the kernel from 5.7. Also found linux-mbp-arch but that is specific to arch, and wouldn't work on Debian yeah? Or could I run those patches against something to get a Debian compatible kernel?
  • Arch Linux on iMac 2019
    5 projects | /r/archlinux | 10 Feb 2021
    I once installed Arch on a MacBookPro15,1 (2019). It worked but I was mainly experimenting with it rather than actually using it. I had to use a custom kernel https://github.com/aunali1/linux-mbp-arch but I think this is MacBook specific. WiFi, the touchbar and the Intel iGPU are among the things that caused me the most headache. Also, the keyboard and mouse don't work without the custom kernel. But I managed to get the system to work overall (incl. WiFi) and most of those issues don't affect iMacs, I guess.

    Question: How do I compile wii-linux-ngx project [the experimental 4.X branch]? There's literally no documentation, how did you do it?
