After installing Parallels tools over a Fedora Core 8 Installation that was working ok, the mouse stopped working (more specifically, mouse clicks). This is Parallels build 5584, running on a Mac Pro with 2GB RAM and Mac OS X 10.5.1.
I too am having this issue: OS X 10.5.2 Macbook Parallels 3.0 Build 5584 Fedora 8 i386 - all updates applied Parallels Tools has been installed Upon initial installation, the mouse clicks worked fine. However, the resolution was 800x600, so I manually changed it to 1280x800 in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, went to full screen and all looked fine. However, after the change, mouse clicks do not work. Best Regards, Tom
Some interesting additions... Initially, mouse clicks work fine, after perhaps 2 minutes they stop working. I'll see if I can post the xorg log file.
I've been having this problem as well. I'm using Fedora 8 on an aluminum iMac running OS X 10.4.11. My solution has been to change the xorg.conf so that it does not use "Parallels Screen", and instead uses the "default" screen configuration. The only problem with this (which at this point is a minor nuisance) is that the mouse pointers from both OSs are overlaid on one another. Video performance is probably slower, too. But at least I can still click the mouse and don't have to capture/release the mouse. Any hopes on getting a fix for this sometime soon?
bugfix I modified xorg.conf as follows: ... # Parallels mouse driver Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Parallels Mouse" Driver "prlmouse" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" # Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection ... Restarted X11 and everything works fine. Hope this is helpful, Ralf
