Bug#987765: aqemu: After adding a usb device vm will not start any more
Package: aqemu Version: 0.9.2-2.3 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, aqemu starts my vm with Win7 without any problems as long I do not add a usb device. I tried now to add my usb card reader ReinerSCT CyberJack Standard to my vm so I used aqemus menu for that. If I start the vm now it will shows me a normal warning about the fd device and then ends so the vm will never start. I checked how aqemu will start the vm before and after adding the usb device: Before which is working but no usb: usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -monitor stdio -k de -machine accel=kvm -m 4096 -no- fd-bootchk -fda /home/user/qemu/Win7/floppy -cdrom /home/user/qemu/cd.iso -hda /home/user/qemu/Win7/hda.qcow2 -hdb /home/user/qemu/Win7/acronis.qcow2 -boot once=c,menu=on -net nic,macaddr=00:ef:55:f9:d7:d9,model=rtl8139 -net user -rtc base=localtime -name "Win7" After which will not start the vm: usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -monitor stdio -k de -machine accel=kvm -m 4096 -no- fd-bootchk -fda /home/user/qemu/Win7/floppy -cdrom /home/user/qemu/cd.iso -hda /home/user/qemu/Win7/hda.qcow2 -hdb /home/user/qemu/Win7/acronis.qcow2 -boot once=c,menu=on -net nic,macaddr=00:ef:55:f9:d7:d9,model=rtl8139 -net user -usb -device usb-host,bus=usb.0,hostbus=1,hostport=6 -rtc base=localtime -name "Win7" I get the following error if I try to start it in console: (qemu) qemu-system-x86_64: -device usb-host,bus=usb.0,hostbus=1,hostport=6: Bus 'usb.0' not found lsusb shows me the following for the device: lsusb|grep Reiner Bus 001 Device 007: ID 0c4b:0500 Reiner SCT Kartensysteme GmbH cyberJack RFID standard dual interface smartcard reader I tried to modify the parameters but never could start the vm. After searching the web I found a work around by using vendor and product id. Replacing the bus.0 etc. parameters by that values works, the vm is starting and the device is usuable in the vm: usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -monitor stdio -k de -machine accel=kvm -m 4096 -no- fd-bootchk -fda /home/user/qemu/Win7/floppy -cdrom /home/user/qemu/cd.iso -hda /home/user/qemu/Win7/hda.qcow2 -hdb /home/user/qemu/Win7/acronis.qcow2 -boot once=c,menu=on -net nic,macaddr=00:ef:55:f9:d7:d9,model=rtl8139 -net user -usb -device -usb -device usb-host,vendorid=0x0c4b,productid=0x0500 -rtc base=localtime -name "Win7" By the way for the moment I cannot use aqemu if I want to add a usb device so I must start the vm from console. The problem with vendor:productid is, if I e.g. two same devices this will not further work. The permissions in dev for the usb device are ok. I'm in the same group scard with my user. But against using vendor/productid it should not work if the permissions are wrong. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.9 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-16-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages aqemu depends on: ii libc62.28-10 ii libgcc1 1:8.3.0-6 ii libqt5core5a 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libqt5dbus5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libqt5gui5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libqt5network5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libqt5printsupport5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libqt5test5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libqt5widgets5 5.11.3+dfsg1-1+deb10u4 ii libstdc++6 8.3.0-6 ii libvncclient10.9.11+dfsg-1.3+deb10u4 ii qemu 1:3.1+dfsg-8+deb10u8 Versions of packages aqemu recommends: ii qemu-kvm 1:3.1+dfsg-8+deb10u8 aqemu suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
