    Ubuntu 10.10 Parallels Tools installation failed

    Ubuntu 10.10 installed (express option in virtual machine using Parallels 6 on an iMac running OS X 10.6.4) in a flash and like a dream. But the Parallels Tools installation failed. Install error log attached. Any ideas, folks?

    Re: Ubuntu 10.10 Parallels Tools installation failed

    Sorry at this moment I have no answer for you. What I do know that I have exactly the same problem.
    The parallels log output is exactly the same. There could be a problem with the fact that I installed a 64 bit version of ubuntu. Maybe it does work for the 32 bit version, but that should be tested.

    Well for the 32 bit version the same conclusion: It does not work.

    Anyone else out there with a solution for us newby ubuntu in a virtual machine?

    I've got the same problem. Looks like there's a thread going on the Parallels support forum, but no solutions yet.

    I logged it with Parallels Support a month ago and they replied that Tools DO NOT WORK with 10.10 but they are working on an upgrade to Parallels to get Tools to work.

    I can confirm the same problem with the 32 bit version.

    It's odd because 10.04 plays with Parallels splendidly.
