That did help a little. Inserted that line in 'interfaces' file, restarted networking and network-manager and now Tomtom is not tried as a network device. However, it is still grayed out in virtualbox and the VM doesn't see it as attached at all. Same behavior whether I have a filter for it in VB's USB devices filters section. BTW, I have, since yesterday, virtualization enabled on my machine (amd machine, it is called AMD-V in it?). Is this necessary? -- Please reply to this list only.
