However I had a minor problem. Remember to use the correct gid for the device. Supposing that the group to run virtual machines is called vboxusers, obtain the group id with cat /etc/group | grep vboxusers | cut -d: -f3 and instead of 46 use the output of this command. This is my line: none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=124,devmode=664 0 0 Thanks for the trick. However I had a minor problem.
