Hello guys
I have read many topics but I can not find a solution to my problem.
I managed to install Ubuntu 14.04.3 on my old MacBook Pro 5,2 (2009)
Mac configuration:
CPU: 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 1067 MHz
Video Card:
NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT (Bus: PCIe)
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M (Bus: PCI)
ubuntu, installation procedure on mac:
- The mac, I created 3 partitions.
- Started the live ubuntu, with the parameter nomodeset
- From the live ubuntu, I formatted partitions as: efi, ext4 /, snap.
- Installed ubuntu, okay.
- Start using ubuntu nomodeset.
- Update nvidia driver from "System Preferences".
Restart the Mac, Ubuntu opens, perfect.
When I use the MacBook shuts down.
I tried all the nvidia driver present, owners and open source.
No way, goes off. 1 minute, 5 minutes, when I open Internet, when I try to do something that requires use of the GPU.
I cleaned the fan, thinking that this was the cause.
The problem remains.
If the grub septum nomodeset not switch off, but I can not work without a video card working.
How can I understand and solve this problem?
Sorry for my English is not perfect.
