RVDowning Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Still have issues with VirtualBox non-OSE latest and greatest on 2009.1(host) and WinXP client with kde 4.2.2. I also had this problem on 2009.0 with the previous versions of VirtualBox. Namely, for me to be able to access any usb device, the device needs to be plugged into the usb port when I first bring up Mandriva. Then when I bring up VirtualBox and WinXP I can see the devices listed and active. If I don't have the device plugged in at system startup, the entry is grayed out when I bring up VirtualBox/WinXP and is not available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Please post your fstab ( cat /etc/fstab ). VirtualBox needs special permissions for the usbfs filesystem to mount USB devices for unpriviledged users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
