IPhone USB Tethering Ubuntu
From MS Computech
Tether via USB
Tethering your iPhone via USB uses a iPhone Ethernet driver written by Diego Giagio. Paul McEnery has set up a PPA repository with the driver and it’s dependencies so there is no longer the need to compile both ‘libiphone’ and ‘ipheth’. The first step is to add the PPA repository to your Synaptic repositories. To do so, open a new Terminal window and execute the following command
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gvfs ipheth-utils
Tether via Bluetooth
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:blueman/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install blueman
If you have an error Unable to mount iphone you need to upgrade libmobiledevice
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gwibber-daily/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
