why i can't get my USB interface detected by guest OS on my VMware? If i plug my flash disk to my system, only my host (SUSE) can detect it, but not my guest OS.
I try to enable it from menu VM -> Removable Devices -> USB devices, but it shows nothing. I do have USB device on the setting (USB device present)
Hi Hans, I have the same problem. What I found is that the VMware USB driver is for only two ports. My motherboard has 8 ports and my chip reader (for my camera) is on port 7 or 8 ( I would have to open the box to see which). Which means that VMware can not see this USB. So if possible you could try to move the USB wires to port 1 or 2 on your motherboard and see if that helps.
