Folks on the internet seem to report good results from using Blueman (http://blueman-project.org/) to tether an iPhone to Ubuntu over Bluetooth.

wine is very rarely the correct solution, rather, think of it as a last resource.

Try connecting trough bluetooth. The most popular one is blueman, but there are others:

apt-cache search bluetooth
