If you’ve got an iPhone or iPod touch and are thinking about running Ubuntu some time in the near future, you’ll be glad to know that either device can be plugged in via USB without much fanfare as Lucid Lynx, the latest version of this famously user-friendly distro offers out-of-the-box support whether Apple likes it or not. That’s right, the iPhone “just works” with Ubuntu, and so does the iPod touch. The only thing left now is for there to be a Linux version of iTunes. And for Apple to not work against this built-in feature by issuing a software update or something similar. Enjoy it while you can, anyway.
