Error attaching USB device
Posted: 26. Jul 2021, 14:47
Trying to attach a USB device to a Linux guest from a Windows 10 host, gives me a VERR_PDM_NO_USB_PORTS. I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm not sure if it matter what kind of device it is, but it's a Netgear A6210 (that's a wifi stick).
When I try, I hear the "device disconnected" chime from Windows, and then I get this error. It takes a second or two, so it's trying... something.
So where exactly does it not have enough USB ports, and how does it come to that conclusion? The guest obviously has a USB controller (set to 2.0 mode), or I wouldn't be able to attach anything.
I'm on Windows 10 21H1, VB 6.1.24. Guest is Linux Mint 20.2. GA are installed & latest version.
PS: the error it gives me allows me to select text, but copying anything doesn't work. Also defocusing VB makes the error details collapse, making it a real PITA to make a note of the exact error code. Please fix that as well at some point.
