Hi,

I bought mine yesterday....and itÅ› shiny, shiny...

But, there are buts...a lot of buts...I mean, I use debian, is my os, and
I love it, but the instalation in the new MBP..argghhh!!

First of all, the ethernet card is missing -at least the drivers - the
only ones that the MBP have knowledge are the firewire ones, -I do not know
if this use to happen in the other MBP - due to I use to be a user of the
black macbook, but till I configure my wifi it had been a horrible, horrible
situation...

There is package for the new and great Nvidia grphs. But until you
configure it, you cannot use the X, so : without inet and x, it had been a
long, long, loooooong, installation.

I do not know if there is a easy mode or an  easy linux distro to install
(maybe kubuntu...), but I had spend the last 36 hours, trying to install all
my etchy, and I haven't finish yet.

So, if anyone have finished and want to share his/her experience, please,
please, please,....do it.

Best Regards!!


hi Gela, thanks for  the intro! when you have a couple of minutes, would you
minding sending the list the output from these two commands please?:

1) uname -a

2) lspci -nn

3) send the contents of /tmp/smc.txt from ths command:
   for i in `find /sys/devices/platform/applesmc/ -type f`; do \
       echo -n "$i: " >>/tmp/smc.txt; sudo cat "$i" >>/tmp/smc.txt 2>&1; \
   done

4) *unplug the power cable, then run and send the contents of
/tmp/batteries.txt:
   for i in `find /proc/acpi/battery/ -type f`; do \
       echo -e "\n$i: " >>/tmp/batteries.txt; cat "$i" >>/tmp/batteries.txt
2>&1; \
   done

and if you're feeling really snazzy, any output from Intel's PowerTOP
utility (www.linuxpowertop.org) would be awesome  ;)

thanks Gela!
