I just saw the news for Nexus mods like 20 minutes after I posted that. Hopefully it can be integrated well soon.

But yes, over time, things will continue to get better. Even Nvidia finally started working on open drivers for their GPUs.

A lot of mods are also windows locked too.

I thought that phone charging was a harmonica, and I was so confused why that was charging.

What distro works well for a 2012 Macbook Pro? in c/[email protected]

Thanks! It looks like libinput-gestures might be one of the missing puzzle pieces I need for making it feel like a mac again!

I used to use Pop! on my desktop for years, until an update they did a few years ago I didn't like, and I switched out of the distro. Never gave it another chance, but maybe I can revisit it for this mbp.

Do you know if you are able to map and do all the multi-touch gestures on it fine? And have you tried remapping some of the keys with the CMD button?

What distro works well for a 2012 Macbook Pro? (lemmy.world)
 

Hello,

I have an old macbook pro 2012. With Apple dropping all support for it, I want to run Linux on it. The caveat is - Im looking for the same feel as the experience with the macbook trackpad and keyboard.

I've tried a few different OS's on it, and each time, it runs as how you would expect. No issues with installation or anything, and most issues have a small or easy fix.

Being used to old habits with that laptop, I haven't had good luck with remapping things to give it it's old feel again.

By feel, I mean things like mapping trackpad gestures, some of the "function row" to map the same things as they keyboard has them, remapping some hotkeys to make use of the command button, etc.

I was wondering if there was an OS that has a lot of the things like mouse gestures, or the keyboard mappings of those laptops already built into it.
