USB Devices

[frantek]

Hi,

I need to access USB devices (namely a scanner) in a Windows-KVM-VM. How can I get this done ?

TIA

use the search function of the forum.

I did ... perhaps you can provide me a search string which will display hits with content that matters ....

TIA !

look for 'hostusb'

and see 'man qm'

Thanks, I see, no way to get it by the GUI ... next question, same topic: When I add some thing to e.g. /etc/qemu-server/101.conf - do my manual changes survive when I change the VM in the GUI ?

do my manual changes survive when I change the VM in the GUI ?

yes
