The internal ssd, camera, mic, and the keyboard/trackpad work out of the box. WiFi and Bluetooth work with some extra steps. Read this for information about the latest hardware support.

This kernel is usually at the same version as the stable Fedora kernel. It is currently built for Fedora 38.

Instalation

Download the live ISO from here. Follow the installation guide.

WiFi/Bluetooth

Follow the firmware guide. When you get to the On Linux section, you can just run firmware.sh.

Upgrading to a new Fedora Version

This should work normally, either with dnf system-upgrade or Gnome Software (PackageKit). If you get an error about t2linux-config, run sudo dnf remove t2linux-config && sudo dnf install t2linux-config.

Troubleshooting

Q: Suspend is not working.
A: Install the WiFi firmware. Follow the wifi section.
Q: The keyboard backlight is not working.
A: It doesnt work for some users on Fedora. If you really need it, contact @sharpenedblade on the t2linux discord.
Q: The touchbar is blank, and I already installed the firmware.
A: Reboot into MacOS Recovery by holding CMD+R while booting up, then reboot into Fedora again.
