On my Mint host system, I have a Windows 10 VirtualBox installed. Here I have downloaded the app that is needed for my Sony digital paper tablet, since unfortunately it is available for Windows only.
Now, to setup the tablet I need to connect it to my PC with a USB cable, which in my case means connecting it to my linux system and then passing the connection to the VirtualBox. The problem is that my mint system does not recognize any device even when the USB cable is connected, since there must be some sort of block that allows only Windows systems to recognize the tablet (I have tried it on a different computer and it works on Windows OS).
Is there any way I can force my mint system to "see" the tablet, so to be able to eventually pass the connection to the virtual machine?
I don't know if it is of any help, but this is the output of the
dmesg
for the tablet device I am talking about: Code: Select all
