Interesting - I thought SPI was as old as the hills, but I see Intel has an "enhanced" SPI now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface On Fri, Mar 15, 2019 at 10:31 AM joshua stein wrote: > On Fri, 15 Mar 2019 at 09:18:02 +0100, Harald Dunkel wrote: > > Hi folks, > > > > does it work, OpenBSD on a 12" Macbook 2017?

The keyboard and touchpad are connected over SPI now, so they require a new Intel SPI controller driver and then two custom drivers for the keyboard and touchpad. So no, the device does not work on OpenBSD unless you use a USB keyboard/mouse.

I'm running a snapshot of OpenBSD on an 8th gen Intel laptop (not a mac) without issue. I would suggest using dmesg to examine your hardware requirements and read over the FAQ, especially the networking section. https://www.openbsd.org/faq/index.html

Hi folks, does it work, OpenBSD on a 12" Macbook 2017? I tried Linux once, but keyboard and trackpad were not working, so I kept MacOS. Looking on Google I found just Macbook Airs and Pros. Hopefully I wasn't too blind to see. Every helpful comment is highly appreciated Harri
