Just link your USB Port trough into the VM, the VM Includes USB Drivers
for the ACG reader,so you can see an USB-Serial Port inside the VM, and
don´t need to install the ACG USB-Serial drivers for the Windows XP host.
You need to change the port with RFDUMP to /dev/ttyUSB0 and this should
be the trick ...
Have a nice day ...
