Bluetooth USB Dongle on VirtualBox 4.2.10 - not working
Posted: 12. Apr 2013, 00:00
I have VirtualBox 4.2.10 on Windows 7 64bit on an Asus laptop. I have a Broadcom Bluetooth USB Adapter and Fedora Linux 18 as the guest. The Broadcom adapter will not work with VirtualBox. It will generate the following error:
I shut off the Bluetooth services in Windows and removed the Bluetooth USB dongle. I then created a blank USB filter, started Fedora 18 in VirtualBox and then plugged in the USB dongle. I still get the same error.
I've not found anything on Google or here that would explain why this happens. I do have the dongle detected by VirtualBox itself but I get the error when I select it from the menu.
Any hints or tips?
