Silent windows client (driver) installation

Forums

<p>After messing around with the client exe file and extracting the included dpinst, I got stuck.<br />
My idea was to distribute the VirtualHere client (drivers) with WPKG. The execution of the client application (tray icon) works, but as soon as the user wants to connect to a certain USB device, administrator privileges are requested.
</p>
<p>Some ideas anyone? Maybe some "silent installation" switches have to be set?

<p>Thank you.</p>

Devices no longer accessable/visible locally when plugged in Ubuntu

Forums

I am having an issue with my Ubuntu workstation, Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS x64, and I have the latest virtualhere server, vhusbd64 v1.7.4. The USB devices work fine remotely via the virtualhere software, even new devices plugged show fine in virtualhere and work when connected to windows client. The problem is I can no longer use USB devices with my local station, even if they are not used with virtualhere or ignored.

(Un)ignore USB devices

Forums

Hello,

I have selected to ignore two USB devices on my Raspi with the Windows client.
Now I would like "un-ignore" them. What is the correct way of doing so?

I have stopped the daemon and manually edited the file /root/config.ini and removed everything from the option "IgnoredDevices".
Strange: the option "IgnoredDevices" only shows one ignored device and not both devices. However, the second missing device is also not listed anymore. It is completely gone from VH-client. I have not tried to reboot yet.

Raspberry Pi hints (and VirtualHere praise)

Forums
I wanted to post this in the hopes of saving others time and hassles. I ran into some very strange issues with the Raspberry Pi. I had intermittent issues where the device would not load, the software would hang, it would load then not change to the other device, etc. I did discover that the power adapter made a difference on how bad the problem was (would work fine a couple times then back to unresponsive problems). Come to find out, it looks like the Pi has USB issues I did not know about...
