The inability to use USB devices within the client VirtualBox OSE is a real nuisance, having regard to the excellent features provided by this application, thanks to the guest additions, especially for those who virtualize Windows XP and the devices that are struggling to be recognized by our beloved Linuxbox.
the Debian world there are hundreds of posts that provide the solution to this problem, while for Fedora a little 'less, especially in Italian :-).
The solution I found in this
post.
Then, as I tried to apply the proposed solution and everything runs smoothly, I thought it might be useful to summarize here.
I assume you have already installed the VirtualBox Guest nell'XP Additions. 
# gedit / etc / rc.d / rc.sysinit edit (with #) the line 26
26 # mount-n-t usbfs / proc / bus / usb / proc / bus / usb
and add after the line
mount-t usbfs-o remount, devgid = $ (awk-F: '/ ^ vboxusers: / {print $ 3}' / etc / group), devmode = 664 / proc / bus / usb / proc / bus / usb
to obtain
24 modprobe usbcore> / dev / null 2> & 1 & & mount-n-t usbfs / proc / bus / usb / proc / bus / usb
25 else
26 # mount-n-t usbfs / proc / bus / usb / proc / bus / usb mount-t
27 usbfs-o remount, devgid = $ (awk-F: '/ ^ vboxusers: / {print $ 3}' / etc / group), devmode = 664 / proc / bus / usb / proc / bus / usb 28 fi save and exit gedit always give root console # gedit / etc/udev/rules.d/10-vboxdrv.rules and change, in line 1, the value of MODE from 600 to 660 and save
Efficient use of the restart
usb :-)
