hi guy,

I am running Ubuntu 9.04 and my guest is Windows XP

Installation of VB 3.02 perfect with the .deb.
Creation of vboxusers correct. I am part of this group too
But I cannot access USB devices...

Any idea what to do ??

Thanks

Steph

You can find the answer here: VirtualBox FAQ
Please read the Forum Posting Guide.

USB in Windows guest.
You can either enable the USB in the GUI settings of VBox and leave off the filters (do not define any) then boot into the guest and click on the USB device you want.
Or Use a blank filter (.) and then boot the guest. Unplug the USB device and plug it back in to get focus and it should appear in the guest.
