I just wanted to point out that after having some problems programming telosb in the virtual machine I realized that it is necessary to install the tinyos-tools package in the host system. I'm not pretty sure, but it seems that the host system should detect the telosb device in order to make it available for the virtual machine. I think this can be a little confusing if anyone actually want to isolate the tinyos environment in the virtual machine and does not have any tinyos packages installed in the host (probably it is worth a little note in the tutorial). I'll try to install VMware tools and let you know how it goes. Erwing
