Subject: usbdevice option and specifying a specific device
Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2013 20:17:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51F6BFDD.8070500@bobich.net> (raw)
I'm trying to use usbdevice option in the config file (instead of
passing USB PCI devices), and the documentation says to specify the
device in the form host:xxxx:yyyy where xxxx:yyyy is the USB
vendor:device ID.
Except there is a problem with this - I have two identical keyboards and
mice, one set of which I want to pass to the host, and the other set
which I want to pass to the guest. Since the xxxx:yyyy will be the same
for both devices of each type, how can I deterministically specify which
I want to keep on the host and which I want to pass to the guest?
Is there a way to use something like BusID:DeviceID instead in order to
provide a more deterministic outcome?
