Hey there,

There's a very long thread on Ubuntuforums about this, and many people
have reported success (though it involves de-activating the ATI card and
using the intel HD as far as I understood, *and* EFI booting to be able
to do so) : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1695746

I'm very likely to get a MacBookPro8,2 in a few weeks myself, and I want
to use Debian testing too. So it'd be great if you kept us (or at least
me) posted about your progress, and in case of success, write a Debian
specific HOWTO!

Thanks in advance for sharing!
