Re: V-USB device connected through VMWare Workstation

vouvoume, thanks for your quick reply. Unfortunately I was busy with other stuff and didn't have the time to reply.
The problem is really more annoying as I can't use the device at all when the Ubuntu VM is running. I must suspend it or else the HIDBootFlash utility can not identify the bootloadHID device.
From what I can tell after looking in the VMWare logs the device does not even connect to the VM. It seems to fail midway while being handled by the VM manager.
Here are some lines from the log file:

No ideea how I should debug it. I'd be really satisfied if only VMW Workstation could leave the device alone so I can use it in the Windows host.
