Introduction

This is about documenting getting Linux running on the late 2016 and mid 2017 MPB's; the focus is mostly on the MacBookPro13,3 and MacBookPro14,3 (15inch models), but I try to make it relevant and provide information for MacBookPro13,1, MacBookPro13,2, MacBookPro14,1, and MacBookPro14,2 (13inch models) too. I'm currently using Fedora 27, but most the things should be valid for other recent distros even if the details differ. The kernel version is 4.14.x (after latest update).

The state of linux on the MBP (with particular focus on MacBookPro13,2) is also being tracked on https://github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux . And for Ubuntu users there are a couple tutorials (here and here) focused on that distro and the MacBook.

Note: For those who have followed these instructions ealier, and in particular for those who have had problems with the custom DSDT, modifying the DSDT is not necessary anymore - se

tmux cheat sheet

(C-x means ctrl+x, M-x means alt+x)

Prefix key

The default prefix is C-b. If you (or your muscle memory) prefer C-a, you need to add this to ~/.tmux.conf:

remap prefix to Control + a

1. Clone your fork:

git clone [email protected]:YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-FORKED-REPO.git

2. Add remote from original repository in your forked repository:

cd into/cloned/fork-repo
git remote add upstream git://github.com/ORIGINAL-DEV-USERNAME/REPO-YOU-FORKED-FROM.git
git fetch upstream

	touch ~/.config/fish/config.fish;

	echo "set --export ANDROID $HOME/Library/Android;" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish
	echo "set --export ANDROID_HOME $ANDROID/sdk;" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish
	echo "set -gx PATH $ANDROID_HOME/tools $PATH;" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish
	echo "set -gx PATH $ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin $PATH;" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish
	echo "set -gx PATH $ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools $PATH;" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish
	echo "set -gx PATH $ANDROID_HOME/emulator $PATH" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish

	echo "set --export JAVA_HOME /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jbr/Contents/Home;" >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish

	function fish_mode_prompt --description 'Displays the current mode'
	# Do nothing if not in vi mode
	if test "$fish_key_bindings" = "fish_vi_key_bindings"
	switch $fish_bind_mode
	case default

	$ brew update && brew doctor # Repeat, until you've done all the Dr. has ordered!
	$ brew install postgresql # You'll need postgres to do this... you may also need to 'initdb' as well. Google it.

	$ brew install elixir
	$ mix local.hex # Answer y to any Qs
	$ createuser -d postgres # create the default 'postgres' user that Chris McCord seems to like -- I don't create mine w/a pw...

	# Use the latest Phoenix from here: http://www.phoenixframework.org/docs/installation -- currently this is 1.0.3

	# Steps to build and install tmux from source.
	# Takes < 25 seconds on EC2 env [even on a low-end config instance].

	VERSION=2.7
	sudo yum -y remove tmux
	sudo yum -y install wget tar libevent-devel ncurses-devel
	wget https://github.com/tmux/tmux/releases/download/${VERSION}/tmux-${VERSION}.tar.gz
	tar xzf tmux-${VERSION}.tar.gz
	rm -f tmux-${VERSION}.tar.gz
	cd tmux-${VERSION}

	Go to Bitbucket and create a new repository (its better to have an empty repo)
	git clone [email protected]:abc/myforkedrepo.git
	cd myforkedrepo

	Now add Github repo as a new remote in Bitbucket called "sync"
	git remote add sync [email protected]:def/originalrepo.git

	Verify what are the remotes currently being setup for "myforkedrepo". This following command should show "fetch" and "push" for two remotes i.e. "origin" and "sync"
	git remote -v
