This might help with ADE not detecting your Kobo.

With installing ADE in Wine all I can do is post a few discussions.

Check the last link I gave to winehq as there are some good tips submitted by people towards the bottom of the page. Unfortunately as I dont use Wine (I use crossover office, a butchered version of Wine) I can't be more specific in helping you get ADE install.

Alternatively if you do a quick search here in the Kobo forum you can find a link to the Kobo Desktop app for Linux, which has a download link for Ubuntu, so that will allow you to buy ebooks from Kobo and sync them with your reader.
