The new MacBook Pros are not compatible with Linux

Again, as happened with the launch of the 12-inch MacBook, these new models have been widely criticized for eliminating all the traditional ports that we used to date, although the price increase compared to previous models has not gone unnoticed by the users. Many are the users who do not only use OS X on their MacBook Pro, it also makes use of Windows or Linux on its computers. A few days ago we informed you of the information that is displayed in the Touch Bar if we use Windows, what we did not know was that information that is displayed without instead of Windows, we installed a version of Linux.

Well, it turns out that this is not going to be possible, since the new MacBook Pros are not compatible with Linux. This information has not been provided by Apple, but rather a user has published this information, after receiving the new MacBook Pro, without Touch Bar. both the keyboard and the trackpad have not been recognized by the systemwhile the SSD has no way to recognize it as a boot drive.

Apple was not the first to limit this possibility to users, but unlike Apple, Lenovo did it through the BIOS of the Yoga 900 and Yoga 910 devices. This parameter made it impossible for the SSD to be recognized by any Linux distribution available on the market. Being a BIOS crash, the solution was simple, since he only had to launch an update to solve the problem, an update that he launched to solve this problem and thus calm the anger of users who planned to install some Linux right-hander on their computer in addition to Windows.

We don't think Apple will bother releasing any kind of update that makes both the keyboard and the touchpad of the new MacBook Pro compatible, mainly due to the low level of adoption that Linux has in the market.
