Mikkel,
Sorry for asking the obvious but I haven't found it in the manual. The
paragraph on USB does only tell you to be subscribed to the vboxusers
group as I did. I have no idea which permissions have to be set,
especially as vbox is started from the user account (and not from root).
I have permissions for networkdevices, disks so I can use my
peripherals, however, USB devices not. If you can give me a hint where I
have to look I would be grateful.

Section 11.5.7 of the manual. It is also in the FAQs.
One other thing - I hope what you mean by subscribed to the
vboxusers group means you added your Linux user name to the Linux
group vboxusers.

Mikkel,
Thanks for your reply. Of course that's what it is and I had looked,
before I wrote my questions on that section - therefore adding the local
user (joep) to the vboxusers group. The rest of that section, as stated
explicitly is for older systems, I assume either older versions of
virtualbox or older OS-versions, both is not the case (new version of
Ubuntu, virtualbox version 3.5.04 r50677). herefore there is apparently
something other that's refusing the USB to the guest.
Other suggestion?
Joep
