(3) Virtualbox --------------------- This is an attempt to run Kobo and Blackberry inside a virtual machine. The problem described here is for the Blackberry device, as I don't have the Kobo yet. I'm using it on the thread name to save this thread to next week, when I'll get my hands on Kobo and then I will be able to state here if it works or not, for the record.
I installed Kobo Desktop as a software on my (coercively pre-paid) windows 7 as guest system. It installed perfectly. So it did Blackberry Desktop software. Both see internet, and works just fine. As I still don't have the device with me, I can't say it will work when I pulled Kobo on USB. To test USB connected devices, I tried to see if Blackberry Desktop could see my mobile (a BB curve 8900). I configured the "Enable USB Controller" and also the "Enable USB 2.0 (EHCI) Controller" check box. I installed the Oracle Extension Package to make this work. But putting the mobile on the USB doesn't trigger anything, no USB filter is created. I tried to create a filter of my own, using this configuration: Name: Blackberry Vendor ID: 0fca Product ID: 8004 Revision: 0000 Manufacturer: Research In Motion Product: RIM Composite Device Serial No: D5257567011D1C20F41AAB863141F7B3971E97DF Port: I don't know what to put here!? Remote: I don't know what to choose here: any/yes/no? The filter was created, with some tests on the last two iten, but I could not see Virtualbox telling me there was a USB connected. The menu USB shows a disabled (gray font) text saying: <No USB devices connected> Thanks any help! Beco -- Dr Beco A.I. researcher "My psychiatrist told me I was crazy.
