Hi
 
Can anyone help here with a VM problem? 
 
I'm using Qemu, with KVM, on LFS 7.5(with systemd)to run a virtual machine and 
need to assign a usb device(gps) from the host to guest.  
If I run the VM from root, with the necessary arguments, then everything works 
fine.
 
But I want to run it from the user.  And here is where the problem lies.  I've 
included a udev rule for the device in the host like this:

 
#Prolific Technology GPS
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="067b", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2303", 
MODE="0644", GROUP="usb"
 
I've made sure the user is part of the 'usb' group, but I still get the 
following error:
 
'libusbx: error [_get_usbfs_fd] libusbx couldn't open USB device 
/dev/bus/usb/003/003:
Permission denied libusbx: error [_get_usbfs_fd] libusbx requires write access 
to USB device nodes'

I've tried changing the 'mode', I shouldn't have to, but this makes no 
difference.

Any help appreciated.
