Hmm... That is a good question. I am running it on an archlinux guest in
virtualbox. The setup was a standard install for linux x86_64 in virtualbox, so
I didn't do anything funky. I'll have to see what vbox is doing. What standard
file output would you like to see? lsusb,lspci, cat /proc/?. Let me know and
I'll get it :)
