I have not done this at all :-).

 

Just a few more ideas - just in case (you most likely thought of these).


 

Have you changed the IRQ in the BIOS for the USB just to see if it fixes
it?  Made sure USB is on in the BIOS (I know DUH!).  Have you made sure
you have IO-APIC is enabled or Full Table APIC.  I forget what it's
called.  Does the DELL server have a setting for the OS type like the
HP/ Compaq's?

David, 

 

Yes, seen this and followed the destructions but it actually makes
matters worse 

 

I'm running 2.5 with the latest patch - adding the device appears to
work - it appears in \proc\scsi\scsi and in \proc\bus\usb\devices but I
get the following messages in the log:

Now, if I follow the instructions in the article - I don't get this,
instead I'm told that the device has no device drivers 

 

:(

 

So, I just wanted to know if anyone else has done this successfully - in
which case they can maybe tell me what they did and then I will gladly
have their children...

Hello Andrew.

 

Have you seen this link from VMware on USB and the COS?

http://www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1326

Make it a great day.

Hi, 

Has anyone worked through q1326 to create a /etc/rc3.d/S91usb file and
then got it to work? 

I'm banging my head of the wall trying to get a USB drive connected to
the VM Console which works just dandy on my old kit but refuses to play
on the new :(

Tia.
