Greetings,

I'm trying to redirect a usb drive to my windows7 vm to which I access via virt-viewer and I get the msg below:
USB redirection error: Could not redirect ...: Error setting USB device node ACL: 'Not authorized'

how can I fix it?

Thanks,

Dagg.

marking as solved, I used consolekit which seems like is unsupported. replacing it with elogind solves the issue.
