Linux distributions provide separate packages for the Java 8 runtime environment and JavaFX.
Make sure you have installed all basic software requirements or the NB|EASY tool won’t start.
For example, to install Java 8 and JavaFX on Ubuntu you need to run:apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk openjfx
The required UART drivers are usually distributed as part of the Linux kernel since v4.4.132.
Check whether the required kernel module is loaded:
lsmod | grep option.

ls -la /dev/ttyUSB*.

java -jar Vodafone-NB-EASY-x.x.x.jar.
