I am not sure what could it have been, however, as far as I know the
VirtualBox OSE (Open Source Edition) has no USB support, so you should
download the one from Sun's website that has the USB support. Also then I
had good few minutes to setup the permission to be able to access to the USB
devices with my normal user name but after that everything is fine. Not sure
if you will ever had such issues with Parallax? Hope you will share your
experiences with us :-)
