Title:
user can not access USB devices
Status in virtualbox package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Hi, a general users can not access USB devices. The root user (or sudo
virtualbox) can access to USB devices. I have executed the following
commands without success (the tested user is "marco"):
usermod -a -G vboxusers marco
usermod -a -G vboxsf marco
Please write me if you need more information.
PS After a successive check, I noticed that the "root" user (that I
have enabled in my Ubuntu Xenial) can see the usb scanner (that
requires XP drivers) but the TWAIN driver does not detect the scanner.
VirtualBox show the USB scanner as attached.
