Unable to detect Sansa e250R VBox 1.5.2 Ubuntu Gutsy Host WinXP Media Center Guest

[tnault]

Issue with Sansa e250R, VBox 1.5.2, Host: Ubuntu 7.10 , Guest: Windows XP Media Center. Been working on this for two days followed all the posts I could find:

• Uncommented Magic section in /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh
• Added group to usbfs /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules w/perms of 0666
• Added "none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=1001,devmode=666 0 0" to /etc/fstab
• And...rebooted everything many times

I was receiving an error of "Could not find a USB device with UUID" in my VBox.log, however, I noticed the devgid in /etc/fstab was different then my vboxusers group...after making this the same in fstab I'm not longer getting the Could not find a USB device error.

Other then that logs looks relatively clean. I have attached all available Vbox logs

Tried plugging in an I/O Magic USB HD and it worked fine...guest recognized and mounted it no problems.

When I plug Sansa in with out VBox running Ubuntu recognizes it and mounts it no problems. Device shows as connected and VBoxManage list usbhost shows state as Busy.

When I fire up XP in VBox Ubuntu unmounts the device and it becomes becomes disconnected. Also, it appears as if the UUID changes and State goes from Busy to Captured.

I also, verified that my vboxusers group has access to device:

$ ls -ltr /proc/bus/usb/001/007 -rw-rw-rw- 1 root vboxusers 50 2007-12-24 16:28 /proc/bus/usb/001/007

And yes I am a member of this group :)

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
