I run Ubuntu 10.04 with Gnome-Shell 3 on an Atom (Samsung netbook); I not want to waste my time and hard earned money on Windows or Mac, however I have an iPhone and I've seen a few nice pieces online of ways to sync some features (aka your iTunes library with Rhythmbox and iPhone photos with F-Spot) but I want the full iTunes on Linux. I don't mind running it through Wine but I doubt an Atom can handle a dual-boot or VMWare.

Any suggestions/solutions?

The install window won't even open up for me. I click on the setup icon and nothing happens.

Workaround
by Torben Gundtofte-Bruun on Thursday November 19th 2009, 4:10

SuperUser.com has a workaround to get iTunes running inside VirtualBox with full USB and iPhone support:
superuser.com/questions/70943/sync-iphone-in-windows-xp-running-as-virtualbox-guest-under-ubuntu-9-10

I know this is no solution for Wine, but it's a useful workaround for those who need it.

The lowest down result is bogus, read it. An admin needs to remove it as it is skewing the results or at least it will when this IS supported.
