    Live USB Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS hangs on Mac

    EDIT: After researching a lot more, Ubuntu supports the newer macbooks poorly, I'm supposed to use a USB mouse, but thats not an option due to a few reasons I shouldn't have to get into, is there a way to use the command line, and install drivers directly from there?

    Hey guys,

    I'm not an Ubuntu wiz, so please bear with me in this.
    I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my MacBook Pro 2017 no touch bar. I've made the boot usb and made my partition.
    The tutorial I'm following makes us install reFinD after installation, so I booted into my USB through the mac's default boot thing, by pressing option on boot.

    I chose the option where you try ubuntu before installing it, everything opens up, once it does, I can't do anything, cant move my mouse, type anything, the live ubuntu session doesn't show any signs of responsiveness.

    Is this a driver issue, should I just go on about installing Ubuntu. Because I don't want to have to face this situation once I install it.

    Thanks in advance, Much love <3

    Thread moved to the "Apple Hardware Users" forum for a better fit.
