I'm running debian unstable with virtualbox (and other related packages) 
from Debian repositories.  Everything works great!  USB devices work 
great.   I've played with the USB filters, and I can enter filters for a 
specific device.  When that device is inserted, the vm will then pick it 
up just fine.  I want to deploy PCs running windows in virtualbox in a 
school environment.  This means that any number of different flash 
drives, and other devices may be used.  I NEED some kind of wild card or 
catch-all for ALL USB devices to be to go directly to the vm.  From the 
documentation, every field says that a blank entry matches all, so 
naturally, I created an empty filter with no criteria.  That didn't work.

I suppose I could deal with specifying that specific devices are 
filtered to the vm like: all mass storage devices, communication, 
imaging, etc.  I guess this would be even better because I wouldn't want 
USB keyboard/mice to be grabbed by the vm.

I've read a few posts to this site from a while back (maybe a year or 
more) requesting the same thing.  Nobody ever answered their posts.

Any ideas are suggested.
