Hello. I posted this on the freebsd-virtualization list but got no answers so now I hope that someone here can shed the light for me. I have a Windows7 guest OS in Virtualbox on a FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE system. I've followed the instructions in the handbook for enabling USB-support in Virtualbox. In the machines settings I've ticked for activation of USB controller but not for USB2 because it needs an extension pack that's not available for freebsd if I've understood it right. I have an Epson V500 scanner that is recognized as an unknown device by the host OS. ugen7.2: <EPSON> at usbus7 Unknown USB device: vendor 0x04b8 product 0x0130 bus uhub7 I cannot get it to appear in the guest OS. Is it possible and if so what do I need to do in order to make it visible? Thanks /Leslie
