My VirtualBox does not see any USB devices, I cannot add any to the guest. Host Extension Pack is installed, guest extensions as well. USB 3.0 activated. Guest is Win 8.1 64.
Strange inconsistency:
myname@host-pc:~$ groups myname
myname: myname adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare vboxusers
myname@host-pc:~$ id
uid=1000(myname) gid=1000(myname) Gruppen=1000(myname),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),118(lpadmin),129(sambashare)
No USB on eoan host

Re: No USB on eoan host
Looks like you didn't logout / relogin after adding your user account to the vboxusers group.
As the id command shows that group membership is not active in the current login session.

Re: No USB on eoan host
Sorry, had been as simple as you wrote. Strange is that I had added myuser to the vboxusers earlier, but after some reboots, it did still did not work.
Anyway, now it's up and running, thanks a lot.
