Public bug reported:
I'm using Mac OS 10.9.4 with qemu-system-arm installed from brew
(version 1.7.1) and verified with qemu-system-x86_64. I'm trying to pass
a Ralink 5370 WiFi USB dongle to my guest system, it appears in my
system profiler as:
802.11 n WLAN:
Product ID: 0x5370
Vendor ID: 0x148f
Version: 1.01
Serial Number: 1.0
Speed: Up to 480 Mb/sec
Manufacturer: Ralink
Location ID: 0x1d110000 / 6
Current Available (mA): 500
Current Required (mA): 450
Using the docs, I'm passing "-usb -device
usb-host,vendorid=0x148f,productid=0x5370" and getting this error back:
"qemu-system-arm: -device usb-host,vendorid=0x148f,productid=0x5370: Parameter
'driver' expects device type"
