    USB (OHCI & EHCI) is enabled by default for newly created virtual machines (Qt GUI only) 是不是不用在fstab里设置就可以用USB了?

    另外,我在Linux里虚拟XP怎么都搞不好shared folder,哪位大侠能给指点一下迷津?

    @hzxu: 我在arch和gentoo的经验是要用root用户启动vbox,才能用usb,share folder我都是在建虚拟机的时候设好了,再在虚拟机里启动xp后用映射网络驱动器,可以看到设置的shared folder,映射到某各盘符就行了.

    当初选择VBOX就是因为比VMWARE小巧,现在怎么越来越大了~~~~~~~~~

    @yucca 将普通用户添加到vboxdrv组中就可以了。
