don't know how to make this automatic, if you reboot you will have to re-type it. perhaps one of the gurus on the list can help do that.

This line was already in my /etc/fstab:

usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0

So all I needed to do was `sudo mount usbfs`. To make the change apply on reboots, replace noauto from the line above:

usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0

I am running open suese 11, I upgraded vmware server from version 1.... to version 2 and now my virual machine have usb device fully supported. I previusly edit my fstab

from usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0 to usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto

Now the point is that my vmware server run into firefox! It is more slow, is possible change this setting? Thanks

If fstab is left alone and the mount is manually implemented only when needed thru the "mount -t....." command, then, if the problem really is usb, perhaps your slow down will be apparent only when you actually use usb in vmware. but i do agree with you, vmware is simply not fast in 10.3 and 11.0, sometimes i think i should go back to 10.0!!!! d. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
