Apple MacBook and T2/Linux
The x86 based Apple iBook successor.
Stuff that doesn't work
For strange, apparently USB BUS address programming related issues
the USB connected bluetooth module does not show up as USB device
under Linux and thus does not work.
Notes
The integrated webcam required a modified linux-uvc and firmware to
be up-loaded.
Suspend to RAM works with latest Linux kernel and X.org
xf86-video-intel driver, but is best triggered with s2ram to POST the
video chip.
As Apple based x86 hardware the devices comes with EFI instead fo
the old-style PC BIOS. As such it requiers an additional boot loader to
load a classic boot loader and thus a "classic" i386 Linux. This can
be achieved with Apple's boot camp or the open source rEFIt. EFI enabled versions of Linux
can be directly loaded without the BIOS cludge thru the elilo loader that was already
created for IA-64 Linux,
or nowadays just GRUB 2.
