Hi, I'm failing to use my USB stick within a Windows guest (actually not Windows' fault as VBox doesn't offer to pass it through). In the list of available USB devices I got some greyed out and some which can be enabled. The difference seems to be that my user has access to the enabled ones (the printer and the cardreader). The USB stick is displayed greyed out so I cannot connect it to the guest. So my first guess is that the user cannot access it: Hygiea:~ # lsusb | grep Cruzer Bus 006 Device 011: ID 0781:5408 SanDisk Corp. Cruzer Titanium U3 Hygiea:~ # ll /dev/bus/usb/006/011 crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 650 9. Aug 11:14 /dev/bus/usb/006/011 Ok, this is quite clear. Hygiea:~ # chmod 666 011 Hygiea:~ # ll /dev/bus/usb/006/011 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 189, 650 9. Aug 11:14 /dev/bus/usb/006/011 Restarted the guest VM and still greyed out. Anyone an idea what the issue is? I've read somewhere that a device is not accessible once it's used from a non-generic USB driver on the host system. The stick is used by usb-storage actually on the host already. Is that the issue? How could I make sure that the stick is not integrated as usb-storage on a case-by-case base?
