hardy and USB 2

Post by swdinesh »

I'm running virtualbox 2.1.2 on ubuntu hardy.
I'm working with a winxip sp3 guest.
In my virtual machine setting i enabled USB controller and usb2.
i tried to connect usb key, usb external drives, my wacom tablet without success :(
When i choose a usb device, from the usb icon at the bottom of the guest window, the device is correctly found by windows but it doesn't works.
If i detach it from the guest xp I'm not more able to use it in ubuntu until i reboot.
Someone can help me for solve this problem?

Thank you
Alex
