Segfault, fixes don't work

I'm trying to get parallels to work on ubuntu edgy.. I have modified the files due to the bash issue, and the parallels-config runs now with no errors. However I get the following errors in the terminal when I start parallels (I have tried with sound disabled as well):

Code:

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168
  Major opcode:  145
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168
  Major opcode:  145
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device

Then it runs, but when I try to start a machine it closes and:

Code:

Parallels Workstation 2.2  critical error! Send log file ( /usr/lib/parallels/bugreports/parallels-fault-231921.310906.20153.log ) to reports@parallels.com

Any help appreciated!!

 

I am having the exact same issue on my installation of edgy. Anyone have any ideas?

 

Goto Help then Activate Product enter your product activation key and it will work.

 

thanks that worked for me. thats one way to make sure your product is licensed :/

 

Hi

I'm having the same problem. parallels-config runs fine after fixing the sh/bash issue in the script.
When I try to run parallels I get the segmentation fault. How do I go to the help menu and enter my registration code or disable sound if the application itself doesn't run
Am I missing something completely obvious here?

Thx.

 

Hi,

I am having the same problems. However if I run parallels as root I still get the error messages but Parallels starts.

I haven't been able to start a VM because I'm also having the invalid activiation key problem.

Anyone from Parallels care to comment on these pbms with Ubuntu 6.10?

 

Speaking for them, Ubuntu is not currently on the list of supported guests. Wouldn't be suprised if it is on the next release - too many people using/liking it.

 

Yep I do understand it's not *officially* supported yet a note saying when/if it will be supported would take about 2 mins to write.

 

Well, it has never been supported. I have the previous release of Ubuntu running under Parallels and had to do some tweaking to get it to work. Ubuntu appears to do some unique configuration. I have seen thru many simulators/emulators/virtualizers that testing the bleeding edge of Linux distros will be problematic. The vendors will <always> be behind because they have to test so many things with each distro. Give them some slack! I have found that patience and friendly testing/feedback has been well received by these types of vendors.

You could of course relate how you see their mac version getting a lot of support while the Linux version seems to be lacking attention. ;>)

 

I had problems with Kubuntu 6.06 ... sounds similar. See this thread for what worked for me: http://forum.parallels.com/thread4495.html
