@Kai, The cgroup protections are implemented by libvirt without qemu's knowledge. By using the qemu monitor to attach the devices you are bypassing libvirt, so it has no chance to give the qemu process the needed permissions.
Please try using 'virsh attach-device' (see 'virsh help attach-device' for more information). If that fails, please do let us know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/787091 Title: Unable to use USB device in KVM quest To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/787091/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
