USB device... Debian CT.

[darekpawel]

I have 'proxmox' on IntelNUC. With 'Debian' (CT no. 110).

When I run command 'lsusb' on proxmox':

root@proxmox:~# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:0a2a Intel Corp.
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0610 Genesys Logic, Inc. 4-port hub
Bus 001 Device 016: ID 10ac:0102 Honeywell, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

I see 4 USB's.

P.S.
I'm interested in device 'Honeywell'.


But when I run the same command on 'Debian' 'CT' - I get the same results:

root@Debian10:~# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:0a2a Intel Corp.
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0610 Genesys Logic, Inc. 4-port hub
Bus 001 Device 016: ID 10ac:0102 Honeywell, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

What that exactly means? Are the all 4 USB devices already set-up as 'USB-Passthrough' ?


However when I run in 'proxmox' 'ls -l...', then I see the 'dev' details:

root@proxmox:~# ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001/016
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 15 Dec 21 10:41 /dev/bus/usb/001/016

But when I use the same on 'Debian' - no device:

root@Debian10:~# ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001/016
ls: cannot access '/dev/bus/usb/001/016': No such file or directory

The question is - how I can 'see' the device "Honeywell" (Bus 001 Device 016) on 'Debian' ?

Passing through a device to a lxc-container needs to happen inside the container config.

There are quite a few tutorials and threads in this form describing such setups

I hope this helps!
