Thread-topic:	USB floppy issue in Xen 3.4

Hello,

        I want to access USB floppy from HVM guest (Windows, Linux) using Xen 
3.4. I checked with the version 3.4.0-rc4-pre. I have tried with USB floppy 
drives from three different vendors. The device is not accessible in both 
Windows and Linux.
 
        I have usb and usbdevice entry in the HVM config file. The device is 
listed in Windows Device Manager with a yellow bang. In RHEL 5.3 guest lsusb 
displays it, but is not associated with a device name. The same device works 
fine in Xen 3.3.
     
      Is there any workaround/fix for this in Xen 3.4?

Regards,

Sumant
