[libvirt] Problem with USB pass-through

Hello, I have a problem with USB pass-through. I can see the USB device in host machine, i see it in libvirt but when attach to VM i get an error: # lsusb ...

That sounds like this problem: commit 823a684f8d0495bd5e7b413e1a81fd5a600abef7 Author: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com> Date: Thu Feb 11 14:39:13 2010 +0000 Fix USB device path formatting mixup * src/util/hostusb.c: The device path for a USB device wants the bus/device IDs in decimal not octal but the fix was included in libvirt 0.7.7. What is the output of "find /proc/bus/usb"? I'm guessing that there *is* a 002/014, but no 002/012. Since kvm-88's error message lists both, my next guess is that kvm-88 really *is* expecting the USB device to be given as octal. Are you able to upgrade to newer kvm or libvirt? (note that there may be a newer kvm available under the package name "qemu-kvm" or even "qemu", depending on your distro).

Thank you for you answer. In /proc/bus/usb there is a 002/012 but no 002/014. I will try upgrade kvm and libvirt and see if that solve my problem. About now, after reboot physical machine, i can do pass-through USB to virtual machine without a problems. But i will keep testing if kvm and libvirt solve the problem.
