Re: [opensuse] VMware Upgrade [ was: can't have my USB detected by VMware ]

Randall,


Did you upgrade from an earlier version of Workstation? I'm still
running 5.5, even though I bought the 6.0 upgrade. I so detest
disrupting something working, I've been reluctant to apply the upgrade.
In particular, I'm concerned that Windows will think I've moved to new
hardware and revoke its current activation.

I am using Workstation 5.5 and my Win XP Pro virtual machine recognizes my USB
flash drive as soon as I plug it in.

uname -r reveals 2.6.18.8-0.5-default which is the latest kernel update. It
worked prior to that update as well.

fstab has the line

usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0

which has not been modified from the standard SuSE setup. running the 64bit
version of 10.2.

Some months ago this did not work, but one of the kernel updates prior to this
one fixed it. I have only applied the standard OpenSuSE kernel updates.

Mike
