I wish to make a special version of Dyne:Bolic for MacBook with special hardware automatically working. For that, I need to add drivers for :

  • MacBook keyboard

  • NdisWrapper or Madwifi enabled wifi

  • ISight webcam...
  • 915resolution : Intel driver to get the 1200 * 800 resolution

At first, it will be a how to and then a module and maybe later a live CD.
