Getting a MacBookPro to install and boot in text console mode is fairly easy ( instructions for older MacBook Pros apply). Installing Debian Wheezy (7.0) on an Apple MacbookPro9,1 (15", June 2012) I leave the older Wheezy remarks for reference, as they may come in handy in case of difficulties (some bits probably still apply). I let the reader look on the web for instructions on using the vgaswitcheroo interface, the generic instructions apply. ![]() this means that this computer fares as well as any other dual-GPU laptop.

Update June 2016: Linux kernel 4.6 is now available from jessie-backports. On the other hand, the computer will heat to an uncomfortable temperature and consume battery power fairly fast. The external monitor will then work (you may have to click "detect monitors" in the monitor preferences). use the NVidia, discrete GPU with the nouveau (open source) driver. You can use DRI2 or bumblebee to get 3D acceleration on the NVidia GPU for individual applications. - use the integrated (Intel) card: battery life will be longer and the computer cool.To select the card, boot into OSX and use gfxCardStatus (tested version 2.2.1). Jessie's version of of Grub and the kernel do a very fine job in EFI. The article below documents a hack to select which should be the primary device. ![]() The biggest difficulty presented by this device is the presence of a two graphics cards: an Intel integrated device and an additional discrete nVidia card.
