card reader
 

All
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 (64-bit) on a Dell 830 that has a 02Micro card reader.
I have virtualbox 3.2.12 running an xp (32 bit) guest. In the usb devices tray icon I can see this as O2Micro CCID SC Reader [0110],

but the selection is grey (not selectable).
I do have the reader app installed from my office (which does work on a native environment).
On the host, running pcsc_scan shows the reader correctly, and does detect when my card is inserted and removed.

I must be missing something as to why this selection is not available in the guest.
Any input is appreciated.

Jack

IIRC, USB is disabled in the free version of virtualbox.
