"The first installed Ubuntu, keeping a macOS partition. The only issues he's
had have been adjusting screen brightness, which he fixed by switching to an
older kernel, and hibernation, which I'm not sure if he's figured out by
now."
What MBP models do your friends have?
Even with Ubuntu, there were compatibility issues? I thought Ubuntu would
fare the best in terms of compatibility. Did they install the "third-party"
software during installation of the system?
"The other got rid of macOS completely and installed Trisquel 8. The only
hardware that didn't work was WiFi, as expected."
So, T8 has greater hardware compatibility than Ubuntu? What could be done to
fix the Wi-Fi? Install proprietary firmware?
