Oh, hang on, it seems I misunderstood you in my previous reply. You weren't talking about /dev/kvm, but the actual USB devices, for propagating them through the kvm guest? In that case you really shouldn't change anything. If the user can access those USB devices on the host, then he should equally be able to access them on the guest, since the kvm process runs under his user account and thus can use the ACLs? -- Could not open /proc/bus/usb/devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/156085 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
