pommed v1.16: MacBookAir1,1, MacBookPro4,1, MacBook4,1
I’ve finally got enough information to complete the MacBookAir1,1 support, it’s been tested and it works.
I’ve also got the information I needed for the new MacBook Pro and MacBook released in February 2008, but there I’ll need some feedback. I have some doubts on which machine uses which keyboard+trackpad assembly.
- The MacBook Air uses an entirely new device, the so-called “MultiTouch” trackpad, dubbed “WellSpring”
- The MacBook Pro has got a “MultiTouch” trackpad in its latest revision, so it’s using a WellSpring device too, and I think it’s using the WellSpring II device
- The MacBook hasn’t got the “MultiTouch” trackpad, I think it still uses a Geyser IV-HF device
I’ll need to confirm those two last points, so if you are running pommed on either one of these machines, your feedback is welcome.
On a slightly related note, I have some sound troubles on my MacBookPro2,2 with 2.6.24.3 which I didn’t have with 2.6.24.2. I cannot play WAV files anymore, be it with pommed, with aplay or with any other software. In the best case, the sound is distorted and too fast, in the worst case I can’t hear anything at all. And they call it the stable tree, hmgrmpf.
