VirtualBox: admin is not enough…for usb

Posted on by

To manage usb devices with VirtualBox, remember to add your user to “vboxusers” group!
The “admin”, “adm” and “sudo” group are not enough as you can see from

# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vboxdrv.rules
KERNEL=="vboxdrv", NAME="vboxdrv", OWNER="root", GROUP="root", MODE="0600"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", GROUP="vboxusers", MODE="0664"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", GROUP="vboxusers", MODE="0664"
