Hi I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty as host and Virtualbox 2.1.4 from Synaptic. Xp in VB does not recognize my HP 1020 or any USB storage.
Guest Additions are installed. Any help?

Read the FAQ here in the Forum. Or read the Manual. There are topics about USB and USBFS.
And you must use PUEL-Version!

Add yourself to the vboxusers group
Code: Select all
usermod -aG vboxusers <your username>
Also, since your running an older version you may have to update the fstab file. Also in order for usb to work you can't use the OSE version.
