There is no version dependency on this package on purpose! You could read comments back from 2011 to understand why.

Apparently virtualbox package from community repo will have the fix tomorrow.

Ok so I got it working by using the udev rule found here https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22221 For some reasons my user was not part of vboxusers group. I added it to it and USB was back (after rebooing with the above udev rule). This should be added to the PKGBUILD.

Looks like there is a missing udev rule in order to get USB host working I tried to manually install the rule but still no luck. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22221 I also tried to use the udev rule found in virtualbox-sun PKGBUILD from AUR but no luck as well.

I'm moving from Virtualbox 3.x (PUEL edition from AUR that supports USB) to 4.x (Base version (GPL) from Community and this package (PUEL) for additional support such as USB). My 3.x was fully working including USB host. I've uninstalled Vbox 3.x and installed the following packages: - virtualbox 4.0.0-2 - virtualbox-additions 4.0.0-1 - virtualbox-ext-oracle 4.0.0-2 Extension pack shows up in Virtualbox extension manager (USB host). I've also installed guest additions and verified that USB host was enabled under VM's configuration. My XP VM starts but I'm unable to select any of my USB devices (everything is grayed out). Is there any additional step to go through in order to get access to USB devices?

@mektub: No you are right! I'm sorry. After checking conscientiously, this message appears if vbox modules are not loaded. Fixed in -2. Thanks!

Sorry,seblu, my bad... Mektub

After installing it says: ... Please recompile the kernel module and install it by sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup I think it should be /etc/rc.d/vboxdrv setup
