Virtualbox USB support?

[Edgars Šmits]

Thanks for answering! Of course I installed the one from the Ubuntu
rep's, not the one from virtualbox.org. As I was trying to find what
to do last night I couldn't connect to virtualbox.org, same problem
this morning - timed out. I guess I'll have to wait and see if I can
connect later today, if not I just may re-install vmware....


Thanks again!
