Application of USB devices

Post by ulrichP »

Hi,

the forum search for 'USB' did return nothing?!

Isn't there anybody else having problems with the usage USB devices (other than USB sticks or external HDs)?

Is there more information on this topic than just those few paragraphs (http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch03.html#settings-usb) which I found in the VB documentation ?
:D Have a nice time

Ok, forget the previous post.
Forum search returns 1720 hits if you enter 'USB*' as the search term. Strange enough, because there are plenty of hits which do contain the word 'USB' (i.e. <space>USB<space>) which may, imho, rightly expected to be found by just searching for 'USB' (without a trailing *)... :shock: :? :roll:

It has to do with the search settings on the forum. 3 or less are ignored.

Best way to check here is in google. See example below
usb site:forums.virtualbox.org Which will return 6100 hits itself.
