Giorgio, Thanks for your reply. Where can I get vdsm from 3.6.7* for my host? Thanks again!

Hi Fernando, in 3.6 to pass an host USB device to a VM you don't need an hook as it is now standard in the system. But if you have vdsm from 3.6.6 it doesn't work because of a bug. It has already been corrected and if you update vdsm* to 3.6.7rc it will work. I had the same problem but now it's OK. Going to the administration portal after the upgrade you should see your USB device in the "Host devices" tab of the "Host"; if it isn't there clik "Refresh Capabilities" and it should come up. Then you go to "Virtual Machines", select your VM, then "Host devices" and "Add device" and you're almost there. I learned this thanks to something posted in this list and probably a bugzilla too but I'm unable to find it ATM. If you see references to IOMMU ignore them unless you need to expose a PCI device.
