(solved)USB-serial Adapter does not show up in Ubuntu Guest
Posted: 12. Jun 2011, 22:02
Hi
As far as i din't found any thread with this "special" topic i decided to post this thread.
I want to connect my Profilic USB-serial Adapter to the Guest (Ubuntu 11.04, Ubuntu 10.04.02).
The Adapter is correct installed on the Host System (Mac OS X 10.6.7). The Device Driver is from http://osx-pl2303.sourceforge.net/
When i try to connect the Adapter to the guest OS i get:
Fehlercode:
NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG (0x80070057)
Komponente:
HostUSBDevice
Interface:
IHostUSBDevice {173b4b44-d268-4334-a00d-b6521c9a740a}
Callee:
IConsole {515e8e8d-f932-4d8e-9f32-79a52aead882}
The USB-serial adapter is not listed with "lsusb" or "dmesg | grep usb" on the guest.
I get the same error when i:
- add the Addapter to USB filter in the ports settings of the guest.
- add the Adapter as a serial device (COM1) in the ports settings
I even tried to connect the Adapter only when the guest is running.
I didn't found a suitable solution on any forum thread and google.
I downloaded a test version of parallels. Where the USB-seriel Adapter is working properly on the Guest OS.
So, what the hack is wrong with my Virtualbox and it's Host?
My configuration:
Host: Mac OS X Version 10.6.7 on MacBookPro8,1
Guest: Ubuntu 11.04 and 10.04.2
VB Extension Pack installed
Guest Audtions on both Guests installed
