USB Passthrough

Post by Mito »

I'm having some problems with my USB passthrough.

I have a Plextor PX-TV402U tuner that I've been trying to get to work with my VM. It's a bit of a strange driver, so I've been attributing the problems it that, but I am getting an error that can't be found anywhere on the net so I thought I would check here to see if it's a possible VB problem.

I'm running an Ubuntu 7.04 VM on a Debian etch host. I have the driver installed and detecting the device properly in my vmhost and I have setup a filter to pass it through to my vm. My VM detects it and it shows up properly in the lsusb in my vm, but I am constantly getting errors when it tries to initialize.

Code: Select all

[   59.674642] go7007-usb: probing new GO7007 USB board
[   60.075048] go7007-usb: error in read interrupt: -62
[   65.078389] go7007-usb: unable to reset the USB interface
[   65.079186] go7007: error transferring firmware
[   65.080051] usbcore: registered new interface driver go7007
I can't find any references to the "error in read interrupt: -62" part. Is this possibly a problem with my USB permissions? I edited a file somewhere to give the USB permissions of 666, but I can't remember which file that was.

Anyone have any ideas or hints as to what I can try next?

Thanks!
