Ubuntu, VirtualBox 2.2 and USB

Hello,

Now, with this new version of ubuntu, i will post alot about it while I’m trying configurations. I don’t want to teach how to install VirtualBox 2.2, because it’s a package .deb and is so easy to install it (Download Sun VirtualBox). In this post I want to remember that we should select the option “Enable IO APIC” in “Settings – General – Advanced”. (My version of WinXp doesn’t work without it). So if you system is not booting, verify this option. Now let’s go to enable USB in your Virtual machine.

You have to install “Guest Additions”, use the menu “Devices – Install Guest Additions”. (Don’t forget to mount it on your cd in virtualbox)

After you install it go to console:

$ grep vbox /etc/group
The result is something similar to this: vboxusers:x:gid:user

(If your user is not there, add it “System – Administration – Users and groups”)

Edit the file “mountkernfs.sh”:
$ sudo pico /etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh

Go to the end of do_start(), and before the } add this line:
domount usbfs “” /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs -onoexec,nosuid,nodev,devgid=GID,devmode=644

(Replace the GID with your GID)

Save the file, reboot the computer and use your usb in your virtualmachine.

The site that make me try this way is http://www.davidgrant.ca/virtualbox_usb_windows_xp_guest_ubuntu_hardy. This website don’t says it works on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty), so i tried and it worked.

I hope this is useful,
Matheus

PS: You have to select the device you want to use in virtual machine in “Device – USB DEVICES”

  1. I blog quite often and I seriously appreciate your information. This great article has truly peaked my interest. I’m going to bookmark your site and keep checking for new details about once per week. I opted in for your Feed as well.

  2. Comfortable read, finished it without realising how much time had passed, and a look at bravofarms pulled me into more pages the same way, the absence of friction in good content lets time disappear and that is one of the highest compliments I can pay any piece of writing I find online during a regular search session.

  3. Now wishing I had found this site sooner, and a look at caramelcovecommerceatelier extended that mild regret, the calculation of how many years of good content I missed by not finding the right sources earlier is one I try not to make too often but it does come up sometimes when I find sites this good.

  4. Easily one of the better explanations I have read on the topic, and a stop at dazzquays pushed it even higher in my mental ranking of useful resources, the kind of site that beats the average not by trying harder but by simply caring more about what it puts out daily which always shows.

  6. Hi there, You’ve performed an excellent job. I will certainly digg it and personally recommend to my friends. I am confident they’ll be benefited from this web site.

  7. Coming to this with low expectations and being pleasantly surprised by the substance, and a stop at dawnbrookmarketfoundry continued exceeding expectations, the recalibration of expectations upward across multiple positive readings is one of the actual rewards of careful browsing and this site is providing that recalibration at a steady rate apparently.

  8. Generally I bookmark sparingly to avoid building up a bookmark graveyard but this one earned a permanent slot, and a stop at gemcoast extended that permanence designation, the few sites I keep permanent bookmarks for are sites I expect to use repeatedly and this one has clearly cleared that expectation bar today.

  10. Nice to see a post that does not try to overcomplicate the basics for the sake of looking smart, and once I looked at nextgenbuyhub the same direct tone was there too, which honestly makes a difference when you are short on time and want answers without long pointless intros.

  11. Bookmark earned and shared the link with one specific person who would care, and a look at nightorchardtradeparlor got the same targeted share, sharing carefully rather than broadcasting is a discipline I try to maintain and this site is generating shares from me at a sustainable rate rather than the spam rate of viral content.

  12. Hello there, You have performed an incredible job. I’ll certainly digg it and for my part recommend to my friends. I’m confident they’ll be benefited from this site.

  13. Came back to this an hour later to reread a specific section, and a quick visit to cloudharbortradehall also drew a second look, content that pulls you back rather than letting you move on permanently is the kind I want to fill my browser bookmarks with in 2026 and beyond as the open internet evolves.

  14. Closed the tab feeling I had spent the time well, and a stop at flarequills extended that feeling across more pages, the test of whether time on a site was well spent is one I apply silently after closing tabs and very few sites pass it but this one passed it cleanly today afternoon clearly.

  15. Most of the time I feel the open web is in decline and then I find a site like this, and a stop at garnetbrookvendorfoundry reinforced that mood lift, the cumulative effect of finding occasional excellent independent content versus the cumulative effect of finding mostly mediocre content is real for the long term reader maintaining web habits today.

  16. Now thinking the topic is more interesting than I had given it credit for, and a stop at crystalcovecommerceatelier continued that elevated interest, content that revives my curiosity about subjects I had set aside is doing genuine work in the structure of my interests and this site is providing that revivifying effect today actually.

  17. Reading this in a quiet hour and finding it suited the quiet, and a stop at brightbrooktradingfoundry extended the quiet reading mood, content that matches its own optimal reading conditions rather than fighting them is content that has been thoughtfully calibrated and this site reads as having a particular reading mood in mind throughout.

  18. Reading this triggered a small change in how I think about the topic going forward, and a stop at clovercrestartisanexchange reinforced that subtle shift, the rare content that actually moves my thinking rather than just confirming or filling it is the kind I most value and this site is providing that kind of impact today.

  19. Now feeling the rare pleasure of trusting a source completely on first encounter, and a look at goodslinkstore extended that initial trust into something more durable, the calibration of trust to evidence is something I do informally and this site has earned high trust through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good posts already.

  20. A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at clovercrestmarketparlor suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.

  21. A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at quartzmeadowmarketgallery suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.

  22. UpvoteRocket is an automated vote delivery service for game server toplist websites. Buy votes for 25+ supported ranking sites including XtremeTop100, GTop100, TopG, MMtop200 and more. Real mobile proxy IPs, pay per vote, instant campaign setup.

  23. Worth recognising that this site does not chase the daily news cycle, and a stop at garnetharbortradinghouse confirmed the longer publication arc, sites that resist the pressure to comment on every passing event are sites with genuine editorial discipline and this one has clearly chosen depth over volume which I respect deeply.

  24. Now setting aside time on my next free afternoon to read more from the archives, and a stop at stylishbuycorner confirmed that time will be well spent, the rare site whose archive deserves a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the kind of resource worth scheduling around and this one qualifies clearly.

  25. Ребята, выручайте! Купил кресло б/у, каркас норм, но ткань в ужасном состоянии. Ищу, где можно ткань для обивки мебели купить не по космическим ценам. ткань для обивки https://tkan-dlya-mebeli-1.ru Кто разбирается в тканях для мебели, подскажите, что сейчас берут. Нужен метров 15-20, может, кто знает нормального поставщика.

  26. Thanks for a post that does not try to be funny when it is not the moment for it, and a stop at globebeat maintained the same appropriate seriousness, knowing when humour helps and when it just signals desperation for engagement is a sign of editorial maturity that many blogs have not developed yet.

  27. Let me save you some serious time, learned this the hard way. Then you actually go to the local office to pick up the car. Totally different vehicle waiting for you — check engine light on, curb rash on every rim, and that “tempting price”? Doesn’t include the mandatory $35 daily toll pass or the $250 cleaning fee they sneak in at the end. Ten years in South Florida and these jokers still almost catch me slipping. If you are trying to find a legitimate luxury fleet without getting ripped off, do some real digging first and read actual customer reviews. Miami without solid wheels is basically a punishment, especially since the AC must be ice cold and unlimited miles non-negotiable.

    Most of these local agencies are just shiny websites hiding the same beat-up fleet with fresh wax and fake reviews, but I eventually found a service with no games, no bait-and-switch, and no hidden fees in the fine print. If you are looking for the only straight shooter for premium rides across South Florida, check the current details here: miami south beach rental cars https://luxury-car-rental-miami-10.com. Yeah, parking in Brickell will cost you a nice dinner — but that’s just how it is down here. Just drive safe out there and absolutely skip that “paint protection” upsell — pure robbery. let me know if you guys have any other clean spots.

  28. Alright listen up because I’m about to save you a massive headache. Miami rental game is wild — half these local clowns show you a custom Mercedes online and hand you a busted sedan with mismatched tires. Plus the fine print says you can’t even drive outside the city limits without extra fees. Fool me four times? Not happening, lesson learned. When you genuinely need a proper and reliable premium ride to cruise around, do some real digging first and read actual customer reviews. Miami without a decent whip is basically a punishment, especially since the AC must be ice cold and you want zero mileage games.

    Most of these local agencies are just polished websites hiding the same overpriced junk, but I eventually found a service where what you book is exactly what you get, period. If you are looking for the only straight-up source for premium wheels in South Florida, check the current details here: exotic cars miami florida exotic cars miami florida. Also, definitely bring polarized shades unless you enjoy driving completely blind into the sunset. Anyway, at least there’s one honest rental joint left in this town, hope this helps some of you save a few bucks.

  29. This one is staying open in a tab for the rest of the day so I can come back and re read certain parts, and a look at forestmeadowvendorroom suggests I will be doing the same with a few more pages here too, this is going to be a deep dive over the coming hours.

  30. Approaching this site through a casual link click and being surprised by what I found, and a look at elmharborvendorcollective extended the surprise, the rare experience of stumbling into excellent independent content rather than predictable mediocrity is one of the actual remaining pleasures of casual web browsing and this site provided it cleanly.

  31. Worth pointing out that the writer made the topic feel more interesting than I had been expecting, and a look at rivercovevendorroom continued that elevation effect, content that improves the apparent quality of its subject through skilled treatment is doing something real and this site has clearly developed that kind of editorial alchemy throughout.

  32. Reading this gave me something to think about for the rest of the afternoon, and after solarorchardartisanexchange I had even more to mull over, the kind of post that lingers in the background of your day rather than evaporating immediately is genuinely valuable in an attention economy that punishes depth rather than rewarding it.

  33. Worth saying this site reads better than most paid newsletters I have tried, and a stop at coralmeadowtradehouse confirmed that comparison, the bar for free content is often lower than for paid but this site clears the paid bar consistently and that says something about the editorial approach behind the work being published here regularly.

  34. Reading this in my last reading slot of the day was a good way to end, and a stop at apexhelms provided a satisfying close to the reading session, content that ends a day well rather than agitating it before sleep is the kind I value increasingly and this site fits that role for me consistently now.
