    Having Arch Linux installed on my 13 inch Late 2011 MBP, I can say that it can be configured like any other linux distro when it comes to controlling the sound, keyboard light and brightness. I have even created a few scripts for my own use with i3wm, if you are interested : https://github.com/datcuandrei/i3wm-xfkeys
