Proxmox 1.6 - question about hostusb

[noPa$$word]

I use Proxmox 1.6 with KVM guests.

I use a usb host Smargo card reader. He is also detected on the host. I will pass these on a kvm guest. This I did with

lsusb --> i found the attached device with the ID 1234:abcd
qm set -hostusb <vid> 1234:abcd
cat /etc/qemu-server/<vid>.conf --> last line ist hostusb: 1234:abcd

I reboot the host and the guest, but I can't found the smargo reader on the guest.
lsub --> did not show me the reader

with the same procedure I could find a usb-stick in the guest.

What do I try for?

regards
k.w.

reboot does not re-read the .conf file. power off and start the guest.

write if you make it work

sorry. power off and start the guest will not work. I think the smargo is the problem.
I will test the same with another smartcard reader.

p.s. a usb-stick will work with this procedure
