Hi, I've read a number of threads about installing the parallels tools under linux (Im new to the OS) but I cant find anything on the following errors. When I click "actions - install tools" the Image loads on the desktop. The first time I tried this I just clicked the "parallels tools.run" icon but a window opens saying "could not open file /media/cdrom0/parallels-tools.run. gedit has not been able to detect the character coding. The character coding box is set to Current Locale (UTF-8) I've tried using the terminal commands others have mentioned in other threads but I cant get them to work. Using the sudo sh parallels-tools.run command I get "sh: can't open parallels-tools.run." I'm not sure if i've mounted the image correctly but it shows on the desktop. Any help or ideas would be great.
Hi TUanN1. Please follow the steps from this article to install Parallels Tools in Ubuntu virtual machine.
