Dear David Techer,

I have just found out that the QEMU monitor command is usb_add 
host:vendor-id:product-id and not usb-add host:vendor:product. It is 
underscore and not hyphen.

 From the details you have provided, you are basically trying to PCI 
passthrough the USB Root Hub, not USB mass controller or USB controller. 
Then you can simply plug in your USB Keyboard and USB Mouse. My method 
using usb_add in the QEMU monitor is more tedious as I need another 
computer with a network connection to vnc into the VNC server on dom0 
and execute the usb_add commands in the QEMU monitor.

I have just updated my Xen VGA Passthrough documentation.

Please read my attached file "Xen VGA Passthrough - Version 1.2.pdf". My 
Xen VGA Passthrough documentation is now Version 1.2.

By the way, I do not need to install NVIDIA drivers in Windows 8 HVM 
domU. The NVIDIA driver is automatically loaded, but there is a yellow 
exclamation mark beside my NVIDIA Geforce 8400GS. Device Manager in 
Windows 8 HVM domU says that the graphics card has been stopped by 
Windows because it has a problem and the graphics card is not using any 
resources because it has a problem.

However, the display in Windows 8 HVM domU is just fine and the screen 
resolution is also OK. I am able to use Windows 8 HVM domU with Xen VGA 
Passthrough to surf the internet using Internet Explorer. I can also 
explore Device Manager and Control Panel. Windows 8 HVM domU with Xen 
VGA Passthrough is slightly sluggish but Windows 8 HVM domU does not freeze.

Thank you very much for your kind assistance.

Yours sincerely,

Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)
