Greetings. I've been experimenting with different means of satisfying my occasional need to run Windows applications on my Linux laptop. I don't want to have to reboot so a dual boot is out, and Wine doesn't yet provide the necessary support for the applications that I need. Lately I've been very pleased with running Windows in a headlessVirtualBox, and connecting to it with rdesktop. The problem is that I haven't figured out how to mount and access USB devices through the remote desktop. I have no difficulty mounting and accessing these devices in Windows running on a non-headless VirtualBox session (through the little USB device menu at the bottom of the window,) but I'd like to be able to do it in a headless headless session. It mounts just fine within the Linux host, but never appears in the guest. I'm using the current versions of openSUSE (11.3) and the current version of VirtualBox (3.2.8) and Windows XP (sp3) in the VM. I've read through the user guide for VirtualBox, but it doesn't offer anything on point. Is there anyone out there who has tried this? More importantly, is there anyone out there who has succeeded? aTdHvAaNnKcSe -- JAY VOLLMER Il n'y a aucune honte en étant un paria! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
