[libvirt-users] USB passthrough to WinXP guest - WinXP ignores it

[E Gerlach]

WinXP ignores a USB passthrough!

Hello,
I need a persistent passthrough of a USB-device:

Bus 001 Device 020: ID 04e6:5311 SCM Microsystems, Inc.

I added  <hostdev mode='subsy....   </hostdev> like this
to xml file:

[...]
<on_crash>restart</on_crash>
  <devices>
    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='no'>
      <source>
         <vendor id='0x04e6'/>
         <product id='0x5311'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>
    <emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator>
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
[...]


/var/log/libvirt/qemu/win-xp-prof.log:

char device redirected to /dev/pts/4

The enty seems to be ignored completely. Where is
my configuration fault?
Maybe extra module need to be loaded? - In installed
WinXP with virt-manager.

Host: debian wheezy, kernel 3.10,
libvirt-bin  0.9.12-11
qemu-kvm      1.1.2
