Hello,
I have a problem with virtualbox, i cant access usb devices as a normal user (only as root).
My user is part of the usb and virtualbox group.
I was reading this post
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-799244-highlight-usbfs+virtualbox.html
and this guide
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/usb-guide.xml
and i am stucked at this part
| Quote: | | Warning: lsusb reads the information for the USB devices from /proc/bus/usb. If you have not enabled that in your kernel, chances are that lsusb may not work at all. Please ensure you have /proc filesystem support enabled in your kernel and that usbfs is mounted at /proc/bus/usb (which should happen automatically). |
lsusb is working

Is my problem with virtualbox related to /proc/bus/usb not beeing mounted ?
If so what should i do to correct the problem ( add a line in fstab) ?
Thank you,
Xavier |

Get unstuck then - that part of the guide is most likely
outdated. See usbutils changelog.
/proc/bus/usb/ is controlled by CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS - marked as deprecated;
according to kernel note, udev handles it by itself. |

same problem here, I really don't understand how to solve... I just updated my system and now nothing works.
Maybe i'm too old for this.
Udev handles itself. How? |
