Yes I did. I can see in the devices tab of virtualbox the usb
devices, but they're always grayed... I also included filters
(automatically picked BTW by virtualbox), but that doesn't help a
thing. And for the shared folders, I see in the shared folders tab as
well the directory, but when I go in the guest to the network places,
and go into VirtualBox shared folders, there's nothing... I'm not
sure if there's something that needs explicetely to be done, but if
there is, I just can't find it, :(...
Thanks,
