Virtualbox 1.6.0 Usb on Hardy Heron

As certainly you will know little days ago has been released my software of preferred virtualizzazione, that is Virtualbox, in version 1.6.0 that introduces also for linux the support to at this point famous ones seamless windows, beyond to a new series features that I am not here to list (is the site of sun for this). Obviously this new version is not still present in the repo of the distributions, but from the site of which over the packages precompiled for the distro can some be unloaded more in voga, after to have accepted licence PUEL. After to have made it I have installed the package on Hardy Heron and continuation my old guide on the configuration of the customers and the groups. To the only I have found it difference in the method of the qualification of the support usb:

  • the /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules rows, that one of which it is spoken now to point 3 of the guide in the section subsystem introduces thus:

    # USB serial converters
    ” Usb_device” SUBSYSTEM==, GOTO=” usb_serial_start”
    SUBSYSTEM==” usb”,” usb_device” ENV {DEVTYPE} ==, GOTO=” usb_serial_start”
    GOTO=” usb_serial_end”
    LABEL=” usb_serial_start”
    ATTRS {idVendor} ==” 0403 ″, ATTRS {idProduct} ==” 6001 ″, \
    MODE=” 0660 ″, GROUP=” dialout

  • we must thus editarlo:

    # USB serial converters
    ” Usb_device” SUBSYSTEM==, GOTO=” usb_serial_start”
    SUBSYSTEM==” usb”,” usb_device” ENV {DEVTYPE} ==, GOTO=” usb_serial_start”
    GOTO=” usb_serial_end”
    LABEL=” usb_serial_start”
    ATTRS {idVendor} ==” 0403 ″, ATTRS {idProduct} ==” 6001 ″, \
    MODE=” 0664 ″, GROUP=” usbsers

(Naturally after to have inserted usbusers in “customers and groups”).
Beautiful riavvio and a support is qualified.
