MacBook Pro Retina - Unsupported Hardware

mbpr-broken.txt

Confirmed not working:
-Nouveau driver (no HW accel; works in noaccel with patches from https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51971)
-i915 driver (screen corruption; mode is correct)
-GMUX (not recognized by GMUX driver)
-Microphone (speakers and headphone jack work; microphone and microphone jack emit white noise)
-Thunderbolt (coldplug only; often requires reboot)
-Backlight (not working on any NVIDIA driver; works for Intel card with i915)
-Wireless 802.11n (802.11b/g works)

Working for some and not others:
-Sleep mode on lid close (using NVIDIA blob; does not come out of suspend; blank screen with backlight on)

Working but not confirmed/tested:
-Bluetooth

ryan,

• backlight is working with the (screen corrupted) i915 -> "backlight not working with nouveau"
• sleep mode doesn't work with nouveau and i915, but working with nvidia blob -> "Sleep mode on lid close with nouveau and i915 ..."
• I confirm that webcam is working out of the box
• hotplug of thunderbolt to ethernet adapter not working and not likely to work soon AFAIK
  Other than that, I agree.
  Francois

Thanks for the update. I knew I was forgetting something when I left Thunderbolt off the list. Sleep when closing the lid doesn't work for me and I'm using the NVIDIA blob. I'll make a note of "it may just be me" for that one and update the rest.

Ryan, 1) What do you mean when you say that "sleep when closing the lid" is not working for you? You mean sleep generally doesn't work even from the command line, or just that a lid close event doesn't start sleep mode? Or that it doesn't resume? I'm using --quirk-dpms-on myself for pm-suspend and it works like a charm. I did some suspend stress tests yesterday: went through 30 cycles of suspend/resume using a little script based on rtcwake and pm-suspend, with audio (mpd/pulseaudio) and video (cheese) running and I got no failure. 2) Did you see my comment about the nvidia blob display link speed at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1140451#p1140451 ? That seem to invalidate your theory. 3) I just saw you're the author of mtrack. Congrats and thanks. Been using it for a year now and happy with it. I'm taking advantage of this email to ask you about a small issue I have with it since I installed it on this retina MBP (which I didn't have on my previous machine, a macbook air mid 2011). Say I want to move a window by dragging its titlebar. I move the cursor to the titlebar with my right hand, then I click with my left hand on the bottom of the trackpad, i.e. far away from my other finger. In the last version of mtrack (I installed from the aur mtrack-git) this generates a two finger click event. In my view, it shouldn't, based on the large separation between the fingers. Synaptic doesn't have the same behavior for instance, and the version I run on my other machine doesn't either. Thanks & cheers, Francois On Sun, Aug 5, 2012 at 3:36 AM, Ryan Bourgeois < reply@reply.github.com

1. I only mean when closing and opening the lid. Doing so manually, either scripted or point-and-click using the WM commands, works perfectly fine.

2. I hadn't seen that. I'll have to explore other option then.

3. That behavior can be changed with configuration.

I read the doc on github and didn't see anything relevant to this behavior. Cheers, Francois --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://gist.github.com/3252399

Check out ButtonMoveEmulate. It defaults to True, to the moving finger(s) count towards clicks. Set it to False and you should get the behavior you want.
