This is possibly an iOS problem. Apple have added a procedure to require user interaction before connecting to linux computers, apparently due to a confirmed exploit with using a linux based system disguised as a charger, which can install arbitrary software on the iPhone, and make calls without user interaction. Whilst not likely to be a common problem, the fact that it could be done with something like a gumstix in a charger case means that it is a real one.
There's a report on the exploit at http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/researchers-to-show-how-to-hack- iphone-with-usb-charger -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1207812 Title: [Sony VGN-SR29XN_S] Iphone with iOS 7 does not work on Ubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1207812/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
