Ok so I have a Macbook Pro 12,1 and the keyboard/trackpad has been dead for a few months, or so i thought. I installed linux in a seperate partition and when it booted, lo and behold, a working damn keyboard and mouse! Boot camp/windows hadn’t fixed the issue and it still is broken when i go back to MacOS.

Now i have to wonder, is there a way I can get those drivers from linux that make the keyboard function work on MacOS? I’m running linux lite 6.6 (which i guess is a branch of ubuntu) and MacOS Monterey if that helps…

Sticking with ubuntu lol

    Still didn’t fix it after resetting nvram, wiping and installing new os did not fix it. Guess I’m sticking with linux unless i need something apple (like facetime or smthng) then i’ll boot back into el capitan

      Well, the se stupid mf’s. I had good luck with Linux in a MacBook pro but the settings they have to make the trackpad work are pretty special.
