VRDE Module: VBoxVRDP Usable: true Why unusable: I've red pretty much every openSUSE USB problem related to virtualbox, but nothing fits. It's something unusual, although I manage a few remote users, that suffer from the very same issue. The same behavior happens with current version 4.2.6. Stracing both "VBoxManage list usbhost" invocations differ significantly, but doesn't reveal real hints to the issue. IPC Communication seems to flow though a named pipe, which fails on the first connect, but succeeds on the second attempt. For some reason, as a user it tries to access /dev/vboxusb/001/005, while the node is at /dev/vboxusb/1/5, but that would fail for the root case in equal ways, wouldn't it? An upstream report is rightfully closed as being somebody elses problem. https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/11199 I'm stuck. Somebody with more ideas? I'm able to provide any necessary additional info, if requested. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I can confirm, that the openSUSE builds are incapable of supporting USB devices, while the vendor build acts properly in this respect. Obviously, the creation of device nodes is broken. I've adopted the vendor scheme of creating the devices, and guess what, it works. I don't see, why creating real device nodes is any less secure than creating symlinks. home:frispete:Virtualization Will check this package during the next days, and then ask for taking the patches, if nobody objects. Jan, if time permits, mind testing this too? Just tell me, if you need another build target. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This still doesn't work correctly with virtualbox-4.2.18-89.1.x86_64 from the Virtualization repo. After uncommenting those lines in 60-vboxdrv.rules, newly inserted USB devices still don't show up in VirtualBox. And I get errors like this in /var/log/messages: 2013-09-24T15:39:58.863465+02:00 amiga systemd-udevd[2944]: failed to execute '/usr/lib/udev/VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh' 'VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh --remove 189 4': No such file or directory So the problem is that udev tries to run /usr/lib/udev/VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh, whereas the virtualbox package installs it in /usr/lib/: # rpm -ql virtualbox | grep VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh /usr/lib/VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh Creating a symlink fixes this. So could the package be changed to install VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh to /usr/lib/udev/, please? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Well, I had a look at the spec file and think that udevrulesdir is defined incorrectly there right at the top. Therefore the udev rules get installed to (/usr)/lib/udev/ instead of (/usr)/lib/udev/rules.d/, and VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh to (/usr)/lib/ instead of (/usr)/lib/udev/. I created SR#200564 to fix this. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
