Hi, did anyone manage to install Parallel Tools in Fedora 21 (Linux 3.17.4)? i already installed the dependencies (gcc, kernel-devel) and it returned error. is it possible to install or i have to wait for update from the Parallels team? Thanks
We'll probably need to wait for the Parallels team to release a proper patch for this. PTools has an issue with kernel 3.17.x, works a treat in F19 though. What I would be pissed about is if they release a fix for this in the next Parallels version instead and not make it available for version 10.
Yeah, I have the same issue too... logged a call with Parallels Support but they pretty much said this kernel is not supported :-(
There's another thread on the forum. Linux kernel 3.17 changed requirements, and Parallels has been unresponsive. There's a patch in http://forum.parallels.com/threads/parallels-tools-breaks-in-fedora-20-kernel-3-17-2.327166/
i've read that thread, but the instruction requires an earlier kernel version. and have to install parallel tools first on the compatible kernel. he told to edit "pvmnet.c". i cant find "pvmnet.c"
That's BS if they said its not a supported kernel. In KB http://kb.parallels.com/122662, it clearly states Fedora 20 (which ships with kernel 3.17.x) is a supported guest.
