I wanted to create this thread as someone with a Macbook Pro 11,3 and try to get everything working as far as a laptop is concerned.
That means; suspend and wake up, internal wifi, keyboard backlight, function keys, power management to get decent battery life and on this device the internal speakers, hdmi sound etc.
So far I have with the help of shepper gotten the headphone jack to work, so now my audio is playing via some external speakers. I have a wifi dongle TP-Link TL-WDN3200 that just works.
I took the broadcomm wifi chip out of this machine because their support is pretty lame. I do not know what type of connect that chip uses to connect to the MBP motherboard. I can upload some pictures, I would like help figuring out what type of mobile wifi chips that I can use internally to avoid having this dongle.
Here is a pastebin of the command running

here's the current pciconf -lv
I'll go through the steps of trying to get everything configured correctly and update this post.
If anyone have any experience, tips, anything that could help getting any of these devices to work properly or need any more information about this system just make a post here.

) Even though the BIOS is picky the hardware itself is Open Source Friendly. Asus, MSI and Acer laptops, at this time and as far as I know, do not have the bios restrictions.
. Did you maybe check my post in your other thread regarding sound through the speakers? I and another FreeBSD user managed to address the problem successfully on some legacy Apple hardware. Maybe it's worth a try and you can then link it here or re-post
