You can get around this.
Your files -> iso image by imgburn
-> mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom

The “Configure usb support” step helped me mounting the usbs on my virtual WinXP running on Ubuntu 10.04. Thanks a lot!

Dean’s comment worked for me. I was doing everything but I needed to be a member of the user group, also. Before that it was all visible but greyed out.

@Jeff

Thanks for the help. I tested this on a new install of ubuntu 9.04, and you definitely do not have to edit the /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh at all.

The post has been updated above.

I edited:
sudo gedit /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh
and then I was still unable to connect usb (grayed out)
Then I really made sure I was in “users” group (I wasn’t). Just logged out/in and bingo! it works now.

Thank you.
