USB in linux

See: http://virtualbox.org/wiki/User_FAQ

• USB on Ubuntu/Gutsy:

Ubuntu removed support for /proc/bus/usb/*. We will address this issue in the future. Until this, edit the script `/etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh and activate the four lines around line 40 (Magic to make /proc/bus/usb work). Then execute

/etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh start

From now on, there should be a directory /proc/bus/usb/ and the device entries below should be accessible by any user.

• USB on openSUSE: Add the following entry to /etc/fstab:

none  /proc/bus/usb  usbfs  auto,busgid=XXX,busmode=0775,devgid=XXX,devmode=0664  0  0

Replace XXX by the group ID of the group vboxusers. You can determine this value by executing

grep vboxusers /etc/group

Of course, the current user should be member of that group. After the next reboot, there should be a directory /proc/bus/usb/ and the device entries below should be accessible by any user of the vboxusers group.

• If USB doesn't work, check your usbfs permissions. See "Troubleshooting" -> "Linux hosts" in the User Manual for a solution.
