I did some tests with 2 different USB Webcams.
To sum up, USB passthrough didn't work but webcams abstraction from virtualbox
worked for the logitech one
== Microsoft LifeCam Studio
Works fine with Cheese
ben@whitestar:~$ vboxm list usbhost

But bizarrely it isn't recognized by Virtualbox webcam abstraction :
ben@whitestar:~$ vboxm list webcams

An empty item appears in the GUI that if I select crashes all the VMs running!!!
Passthrough fails with an error message (see next one for error message)
But device seems to be captured :

VirtualBox-5.1.6-SunOS-amd64-r110634.pkg
Hi,
Install went on fine.
I just needed to add the SMAP setting in the /etc/system file
Nice splash and "About" screen.
One thing to notice is that the Guest addition ISO is only offering Solaris
version and the ISO itself is rather small compared to the VBox Windows version.
I'll do some test using USB passthrough later on.
Best regards,
Ben

HI Martin,
I can also report complete success, this is brilliant, thank you. :)
