Ubuntu Forums - View Single Post - [all variants] How I got my Ubuntu Intrepid to Tether w/ Blackberry

I did the same, downloaded, installed and compiled all that stuff. Then found the binary packages for barry here:
https://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+archive/ppa
I added

Code:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/doctormo/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main

Code:

sudo apt-get install libboost-serialization1.34.1
sudo apt-get install libbarry0
sudo apt-get install barry-util

then the instructions here:
http://www.netdirect.ca/software/pac...arry/modem.php

then all I had to do was run:

Code:

pppd call barry-rogers

It worked!

to disconnect:

Code:

poff
killall -9 pppob

I hope this saves someone else an afternoon...
