That looks promising. Thanks.
I installed 13.10 on my rMBP 10.1. The install went well, it looks beautiful, and it overheats :)
I installed rEFInd with "./install.sh --alldrivers". From the Live Stick I started the installer...
For me nvidia-current installed fine while on integrated graphics, and afterwards discrete graphics and minidisplayport works fine. Thanks.
Now I just gotta figure out how to get clamshell-mode...
It runs well on my T530. The only problem I have is that it won't boot with Discrete Graphics (just say "no video mode" or something like that forever.), and I suspect that with only the Integrated...
I have hooked up an external monitor with and apple mini-display to dvi adapter and a dual-link dvi cable, but struggle to make this setup work.
At first I had forced integrated graphics in the...
Hmm. Reading the Grub manual (as I should have done before posting), I'm guessing that I should create a dedicated BIOS Boot Partition in the beginning of the SSD.
Edit: And, now that I've read...
Got my new pc at work today. It was delivered with no OS preinstalled, and with a 240GB SSD, and a 1TB HDD. I installed from the AMD64 Alternate CD, in the following scheme.
HDD (/dev/sda):
Whole...
I've wanted to put Ubuntu on my MBP 6.2 for a while, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro6-2/Oneiric#SSDs has kept me from it.
Now I wonder if a solution could be to purchase an...
I've replaced the HDD in my MBP6.2 with an SSD. Now I want to install Ubuntu, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro6-2/Natty#SSDs talks about problems also there in 11.10, so I want to try...
Cool! I hoped the wiki was a bit outdated.
Seems your tips are covered in the wiki, so I'll follow that and see how it goes. The SSD stuff is a bit worrying though, judging from the wiki.
I've...
10.10 ran fine on my machine, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro6-2/Natty looks scary. Can anybody confirm that Kernel stability, Suspend/hibernate and SSD still are problem areas?

I have a Dell laptop with ATI Graphics that sometimes stand alone, and sometimes is connected via HDMI to an external 24".
I want stuff to work so that when the external display is connected, I...
Ah. Thanks for the tip & for the driver :)
I have a MacBook Pro 6.2. The touchpad works well, but I miss two things from OSX:
- Pressing the touchpad with one finger, then using another one to move windows around. Now I have to click with...
I'll continue my rambling:
There's two different scenarios, and I can get neither to work properly.
1. Out of the box. Cmd (Win/Super) and Alt work like they should. I can switch desktops, use...
Removing the customizations I mentioned in my first port, alt and cmd keys work like the should for launcher, unity, emacs and switching workspaces. I can *not* get to any of the other signs on the...
Actually the Alt keys work. I use those to get to {}[] on the number keys, but I have to use Ctrl+LeftCmd to switch workspaces instead of Ctrl+LeftAlt.
I'm running 11.04 on my MBP with Norwegian keyboard layout, and I have some modifier issues I need to sort out.
I followed a blog post that told me to set the following in layout options:
Set...
Haven't tried, but I got that reply on #ubuntu+1. That it's an image with the PPC-stuff built in, instead of the dedicated PPC-image that was before.
I'm aware of that :)
What I meant was that if the 11.04 mac-image is cool, I'll wait for 11.04 before installing Ubuntu on my mac :)
What's "Desktop CD for 64-bit Mac"
I'm gonna install Ubuntu on my Mac, and checked how far 11.04 has come. I see a download for "Desktop CD for 64-bit Mac". What's special about this image? Will it preinstall some of the stuff from...
Anyone found a solution for the gray window with the X cursor?
To continue my rambling:
I got seperate X-sessions by running:
aticonfig --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=left
Then I tried setting DPI in xorg.conf like this:
Section "Monitor"...
I think my initial Q is hard to solve. Plan B is to run separate x-sessions on the two monitors, and set a different DPI on the two displays. I can live with not being able to drag windows between...
I'm considering installing 10.04 on my MBP 6.1, and I see from the howto that most stuff seems to work after some manual setup/install. But how does it "feel"? I had 9.10 installed on my MBP5.1, and...
