in the domainU definition of 'aspic' I try to get the XP-VirtMachine to use smartcarddevices trough USB. So I defined;

name = "aspic"
[..]
builder = "hvm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot = "c"
pae = 1
[..]
device_model = "/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
usbdevice = "tablet"
usbdevice = "host:03f0:3d17"
sdl = 1
vnc = 1
[..]
"aspic" [readonly] 25L, 626C

As far as I can tell from the Xend.log the second usbdevice statement has no effect
Executed is:
29898 ?        Sl     0:05 /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm -d 14 -m 718 -boot c -localtime -vcpus 1 -usb -usbdevice tablet -domain-name aspic -net [..]
The log says:
[2008-10-01 09:36:04 xend.XendDomainInfo 6102] DEBUG (XendDomainInfo:756) Storing VM details: {'shadow_memory': '9', 'uuid': 'd811d477-9d79-4ec6-cd78-26c8ab9fbe67', 'on_reboot': 'restart', 'start_time': '1222846564.47', 'on_poweroff': 'destroy', 'name': 'aspic', 'xend/restart_count': '0', 'vcpus': '1', 'vcpu_avail': '1', 'memory': '718', 'on_crash': 'restart', 'image': '(hvm (kernel /usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader) (device_model /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm) (vcpus 1) (boot c) (pae 1) (usb 1) (usbdevice tablet) (vnc 1) (vncunused 1) (localtime 1))', 'maxmem': '1024'}
  1. SHOULDN'T THERE BE A STATEMENT;  usbdevice  host:03f0:3d17 ?
  2. How, when and by who do the VM details get decided upon?
  3. Why is the statement in the configfile ignored?
  4. How and when does virt-manager generate the actual call to qemu_dm?
Thanks in Advance
