I'm also thrilled with my MacBook Air 11" running Debian. The installation and configuration took some time though. Since I manage it all in Puppet it's easy to reproduce.

Here is the high level Puppet code to configure everything to my liking: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/379663/



Thank you -- if I may ask, what are in the network::interfaces::wireless and keyboard::apple classes? I'm strongly considering switching my MBA over to Debian in the near future.


The keyboard::apple just changes the contents of /etc/default/keyboard to:

    XKBMODEL="apple"
    XKBLAYOUT="us"
    XKBVARIANT="mac"
    XKBOPTIONS="lv3:ralt_switch,compose:rwin,altwin:swap_lalt_lwin"
The network::interfaces::wireless class: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/379776/


Using Puppet for setting up your laptop: love the idea
