Ubuntu client - libusb can't configure/claim/bind to iphone

<p>This software is amazing and it works like charm for android phones.
</p>
<p>It also looks like its working with Iphone (can be seen with lsusb, and vh says In-use by you), but libmobiledevice does not see Iphone attached.
</p>
<p>Seems like its issue with libusb, it can't set configuration (below), is that solveable? Would it work if client was mac instead linux?
</p>
<p>VirtualHere Host: MacMini 11.2.1, vh version: 4.2.5<br />
VirtualHere Client: Ubuntu (v18.04 and v20.04)

You might have better luck with a mac client although lately they have been a bit temperamental depending on the build of MacOS and iOS you are using.

At the moment, mixing OS's with iDevices doesn't work unless its windows (or Linux) server with a windows or Linux client . That usually works OK except for firmware upgrades of the iDevice
