From: Neil Jones on 15 Mar 2010 02:21 Hello, I have the following setup. Eeepc 1505HA OS is Slackware Linux Kernel is 2.6.33 USB Devices - CDROM drive, 2 external hard disks, 1 iPod VirtualBox (vbox-puel) Guest OS - Windows XP The problem I am having is that Linux OS is seeing the USB devices but the XP(VM) is only seeing the CDROM and nothing else. In vbox, I did configure the USB section with the device filters and the XP is still not seeing the devices. How do I get XP to access the USB devices? Any help appreciated. Thank you in advance. NJ

Have you made sure that the user running virtualbox is in the group vboxusers?
