Was Tumbleweed the host or the guest? Host.
What OS was used for the other machine? Doesn't matter, no USB devices are shown in the VM config dialog.
In the TW machine, what versions of the kernel and VirtualBox were installed? Sadly I can't tell the exact versions, but it was the latest from the OSS repo on saturday (31.10). I remember that VBox was 5.0.6. I'll try it with the newest, premature, snapshot and report back.
I suspect that the VB kernel modules did not match that of the kernel. A new version of VB was recently submitted, and that has caused mismatches in the build process. Maybe, but everything else works fine. Just /dev/vboxusb is empty. I tried it two weeks ago as well and I had the exact same issue.

Hm, why does it automatically install the guest modules as well?
That is so you have vboxvideo when you install in TumbleWeed in a VM. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
