Hi Mario,

Indeed, we are!

> I have a 2019 MacBook Air Retina. Until Tails 3.16, I needed to disable Secure Boot in order to start Tails successfully. However, it is known that the Linux kernel didn’t have keyboard and trackpad drivers for newer Macs, so I couldn’t use any input method.


> With Tails 4.0-rc1 I read that Linux kernel 5.3.2 is included. Since kernel 5.3, drivers for newer Macs’ keyboards and trackpads should be included, so I figured I’d give version 4.0 a try.


Thanks!

Interesting! Please retry, adding this option to the boot options:

modprobe.blacklist=thunderbolt

… and report back. Thanks in advance :)

Cheers,
