Re: [Xen-users] How do you give USB to a Windows domU?

["Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)" <space.time.universe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Your Vista configuration looks correct.

Can you add the following lines to your Vista config?

vnclisten=127.0.0.1
vncdisplay=0
vncconsole=1

And then restart your Vista VM?

You should then see a vncviewer.

Then press CTRL+ALT+2 on your keyboard simultaneously to go into QEMU monitor/console.

Then execute the following command in the QEMU console.

(qemu) usb_add host:0951:1607

See if it helps.

I tried to do this and the Vista domU still doesn't see it. Can you tell
what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for all the help.
