Cannot attach USB device to openSUSE 13.2 guest

Hi

I have VirtualBox 5.0.8 installed on Win 7 enterprise edition with an openSUSE 13.2 x64 guest. In the past, I have been able to attach an USB drive in order to be recognized by the guest, but not anymore. The USB drive is seen by VirtualBox and its state changes from Busy to Captured, but the drive is not seen by the guest. I have seen that there are previous threads in this forum with the same problem, but no one has provided a solution yet. Is there a way to solve this ?

thanks
Bogdan

Did you update the Extension Pack to the same version as your Virtualbox? The two have to be the same version. (Note we are considering the Extension Pack on the host, not the Guest Additions on the guest)
