I have an LTE Surf Stick which I would like to get working inside my virtual machine. The Stick is called "ZTE MF 823". I am running openSUSE 13.1 with NetworkManager and I was not able to find any device that matches a hard drive or a modem. Because this stick got also a hard drive for installing the Windows software. Within Windows, it is running as integrated webserver, which I can access with my browser. But this should also work under Linux, because the hardware access driver should be the same. My virtualizer is Virtual Box. I also configured the USB forwarding in Virtual Box. However, when I type lsusb on openSUSE I get the following output: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 80ee:0021 VirtualBox USB Tablet Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub I struggled with the vendor id's of the first entry of lsusb but I can't get it working.
