Go into System -> Preferences -> Keyboard
Click on the "Layouts" tab and then click the "Layout Options" button.
Click on "Alt/Win key behavior"
Select "Control is mapped to Win keys (and...
Sorry about that, I tried get the page to jump right to the iSight section. Glad the fix worked! For any others wondering about the link, just look at...
Are you trying to connect to a secured network? In my experience with the same Macbook I know that the driver doesn't load correctly from suspend, and I can't connect to encrypted networks until I...
The Jaunty libv4l is flawed. (Luckily, I've heard they already fixed it for the next release). The most reliable way that I've found to fix this is downgrade the libv4l to the one from hardy. Try the...
I'm running Jaunty on a Macbook 2,1 with the 2.6.28-14-generic kernel.
I've been happily using my isight with the reverted intrepid libv4l for a few weeks now, and all of a sudden I try to skype...
Good to know that they fixed it for the upcoming release. Thanks for the info!
The only global fix is downgrading the driver to the intrepid version. Follow the instructions here. If you're running 64 bit, you'll also have to downgrade lib32v4l as well.
It might be helpful for 64 bit users to know that they have to downgrade the lib32v4l package as well in order for some programs to work (and to keep the update manager from bugging you that a...

No, I don't think that's normal. It should have some basic settings in there, but a lot of stuff has been moved to the new fdi system. Are you sure you typed in the correct path? Did...
Sweet, thanks for the update.
Those are options you will need to enable when compiling a kernel from source. You won't be able to enable them without recompiling, AFAIK.
I recently upgraded to Ubuntu Studio 9.04 on my Macbook 2,1. Everything is working great so far, except for the rt kernel.
I guess my first question is: do I need the rt kernel? I've read some...
The format doesn't matter. Once you boot your Ubuntu LiveCD, you can reformat that new partition to whatever format you like. Here are the community docs for dual booting OS X and Ubuntu.
Bump to cyberdork's post (these options can still be enabled, check his link). Also, Keyboard Preferences > Layouts > Layout options now includes several of the classic Mac keyboard problems such as...
Rather embarrassingly, shutting down (NOT rebooting) got the isight to load, however the green capture issue is still there for cheese and ekiga, even with the gstreamer pipeline fix in place in...
I had my isight functioning with the green capture issue under 9.04, but oddly enough now I'm having the same problem as these earlier posters. I have isight.fw in /lib/firmware, yet I have no...
well, I love having completely open source drivers... After removing wicd and reinstalling nm and rebooting I've been able to connect successfully after modprobing ath9k. And I don't have ath_pci...
I posted here in the Networking and Wireless section of the forums regarding this issue, but I figured I would try the Apple forum too. I'm running Jaunty 64 bit on a MacBook 2,1.
My wireless...
Yup, I was trawling on bugzilla and launchpad, that's where I got the suggestion to try wicd and the jaunty-backports package. Unfortunately I haven't found a solution.
Would it make any...
So I'm running Jaunty in a dual boot with OS X on a MacBook 2,1. Apparently OS X 10.4.11 broke support for wpa2, which was working fine with my new install of Jaunty. I switched to wpa and OS X is...
ah, makes a lot of sense :) but from your description it seems odd that when I installed grub to my Linux partition I ended up with two non-functioning icons. Oh well, I have a fully functioning dual...
I tried installing using the defaults like cyberdork suggested and now I'm booting fine. One icon per OS and no problems. Should the wiki page be edited so that other people don't run into this...
Well, the upgrade seemed to go smoothly, but now I've run into some problems with GRUB. The refit partition table appears to be correct as cyberdork said. Seethis thread for further info.
*Bump* Have the same issue after following the same instructions. Not sure if it matters, but I manually edited the partition table and also formatted to ext4.
Here's the output of my partition...
