How to use iPhone internet tethering via USB with Ubuntu 10.04?
I had written a post long ago on this, writing it here as well.
Get the source from Diego’s git repository. If you don’t have git installed, open the terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install git-core
Once git is installed, get the source for the drivers
git clone git://github.com/dgiagio/ipheth.git
The output should be something like
sathya@shaman:~$ git clone git://github.com/dgiagio/ipheth.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/shaman/ipheth/.git/

Receiving objects: 100% (10/10), 8.11 KiB, done.
sathya@shaman:~$
Now, compile the pairing program.
cd ipheth/ipheth-pair
make
You should get an output like:
sathya@shaman:~/ipheth/ipheth-pair$ make
gcc -Wall -O2 ipheth-pair.c -o ipheth-pair -liphone
Next, type:
sudo make install
You should get an output like:
sathya@shaman:~/ipheth/ipheth-pair$ sudo make install
install -m 0755 ipheth-pair /lib/udev/
install -m 0644 90-iphone-tether.rules /etc/udev/rules.d
/sbin/udevadm control –reload-rules
sathya@shaman:~/ipheth/ipheth-pair$
Compile the Kernel driver:
cd ipheth/ipheth-driver
make
You should get an output like:
sathya@shaman:~$ cd ipheth/ipheth-driver
sathya@shaman:~/ipheth/ipheth-driver$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.28-15-generic/build M=/home/sathya/ipheth/ipheth-driver modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-15-generic’
CC [M] /home/sathya/ipheth/ipheth-driver/ipheth.o
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST 1 modules
CC /home/sathya/ipheth/ipheth-driver/ipheth.mod.o
LD [M] /home/sathya/ipheth/ipheth-driver/ipheth.ko
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-15-generic’
sathya@shaman:~/ipheth/ipheth-driver$
The kernel module is ready. Now load the module.
sudo insmod ipheth.ko
Now connect the iPhone. The iPhone should get detected, as shown in the picture.
To confirm that the USB Ethernet driver is in use, open the terminal and type
dmesg | grep iPhone
You should get an output like:
sathya@shaman:~/ipheth/ipheth-driver$ dmesg | grep iPhone
[22871.808469] ipheth 2-2:4.2: Apple iPhone USB Ethernet device attached
Switch on tethering.
To confirm that we have indeed connected using iPhone let’s have a look at Network Manager connections:

I have UIScrollView with other UIView elements inside. My other UIView elements are mostly segmented controls. If I click on a UISegmentedControl and hold for a second and then try to scroll, then no scrolling happens. I can only scroll when my finger touches and swipes immediately. I checked other iOS applications such as mail. The behavior was that you touch and hold on a mail, then it's highlighted, but as soon as finger moves away, the scrolling happens and highlighting is undone. How can I implement this behavior?

Sudershan shastri over 10 yearsIf you have added segmented control over the Scroll View, you can add it over the controller's view. It should work.

juanefren almost 12 yearsI would like to add that I needed to install "libimobiledevice-dev" package in order to be able to make ipheth-pair.

neo over 10 yearsI forgot to mention that I already have a controller and I add the segmented control to the controller's view.
