[Bug 488274] Re: disable deprecated config option CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS

[towerlexa]

Hi,

this bug is also stopping my work with the vmware-server 2.0.2.
/proc/bus/usb doesn't exist and i'am not able to connect my usb chipcard reader to my virtual machine.

root at ubuntunb:/proc/bus/usb# uname -a
Linux ubuntunb 2.6.31-20-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 8 09:05:19 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

i tried to mount with the following command, but it doesn't work!

> To get /proc/bus/usb working, try the following:
>
> sudo mount --bind /dev/bus /proc/bus
> or
> sudo mount --bind /dev/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb

mount | grep bus
/dev/bus on /proc/bus type none (rw,bind)

But in any case it doesn't working. In the vmware-server i got the
message

"Remote USB device error: Remote device disconnected: an error occured
while sending data."

Any help is highly appreciated, because my banking software isn't
running inside the vmware-server vm

thank you very much
