I used a friend's Android (2.3) phone that allows USB tethering, subheading: "share phone's mobile network with PC."
Android lets me set 2 tethering settings, under "USB tethering type":
- Windows
- Mac OS X
Naturally, Linux isn't officially supported, but I suspect someone has run into this before. What do I need to on my Ubuntu 12.04 setup to get it to recognize either of these connection types for USB tethering?
