I have had excellent success with urtwn(4). I have an Edimax EW-7811Un and also now a TP-Link TL-WN725N v2 that work great. I believe jcs@ uses a urtwn(4) as well. As a bonus, the urtwn(4) devices I have are pretty compact sticking out of the USB port. > The HiDPI support in Gnome 3.18 worked flawlessly and everything looks > "normal". That's good to hear. I'm using spectrwm on my machine. I haven't tried GNOME yet on either of these MacBook Airs. It sounds like acceleration is working well for you in X or GNOME would not run well at all. > tldr; looks pretty promising - thanks to everyone who put in the massive > hard work to get us to this point!
