Thanks, prodigy, that helped!

Just a really simple quick reply: 10.10 does work, but I'm not sure if Parallels Tools can be installed within it -- sorry, that just hasn't been a priority for me. At a guess, you can probably go with 64 bit given your computer specs. You deserve a more detailed response, but after 8 days I...

ssh, ftp, html a2m1n: Yes, you can do all of that. What I listed before is what you need to enable within Parallels. In addition, your Ubuntu needs to have ssh, ftp, and a web server (apache) enabled. I'm not the best person to describe to you how to enable everything on your web server, I...

I've installed Ubuntu server 9.04 in a Paralells VM. Apt-get and wget aren't able to see the internet, so I can't update it. Can you please tell me if I should try doing something in Parallels? Or is this now just an Ubuntu problem, and I can go seek Ubuntu help. * I've set this to Bridged...

giving up on this never mind. No responses & no time; I'm giving up on this VM and trying to move my svn repository elsewhere.

sorry, no ideas?

I have: * Parallels 5, build 5.0.9344 * on a Mac Pro running 10.4.11 * and my virtual machine is Ubuntu 8.04 I primarily use this setup as a subversion server. For the past several months, after 2-8 hours, the virtual subversion server becomes unresponsive -- I'll try to commit something...

Cause appears to be multiple processors I've been experimenting. When my VM is configured to use multiple processors (tested using 2 and 4 processors), the VM becomes unresponsive within 8 hours (usually much less). When my VM is configured to use a single processor, the VM works fine for at...

A little more detail: unresponsive but not blacked out Once, I've caught Ubuntu being completely unresponsive but not blacked-out. You can see the desktop but not interact with anything (can't drag any windows, can't activate any menus or buttons). So the blackness may not be a symptom...

Other people can give you a more detailed and educated answer. However: Yes, you can do this. I'm currently using Ubuntu 8.04 and have done this in both Parallels 4 & 3. Not certain what the most crucial details are, but my Linux VM is set up to use Bridged networking; my Parallels...

I have a Mac Pro with Parallels 4.0.3844, and as guest OS Ubuntu 8.04 with Parallels Tools installed (thanks!) My primary use for this is to run subversion & store the subversion repository. This worked without fail before upgrading to Parallels 4 last week. The only changes to this VM since...

Same problem; MacFUSE then what? and more details John, I'll second diitto's report: I see the same problem. (Except that diitto says that he can only use the mounted C drive to drag & drop; I can use the files on the mounted drive to work normally, e.g. double-clicking on file and having...

This worked! Thanks!

Hello. I successfully changed my 8 GB disk to a 32 GB expanding disk. In order for my expanding disk to use the extra 32 GB, I need to put the currently unallocated space to work. The Parallels Image Tool manual says, It then gives directions for how to create a new partition. I'd...

Recreated DiskDescriptor.xml You gave me a couple ideas. I did my best to recreate the DiskDescriptor.xml file. Now I can boot the Ubuntu VM; it gets as far as the Ubuntu Cylon startup window but then, after the light bounces once, it freezes. I can now run the Snapshot Manager, but I...

Thanks. Yes, DiskDescriptor.xml is empty.

John, I think you misunderstood. I'm discussing corrupted hard disk, not snapshots, and because the hard disk is corrupted (or because Parallels reports that it's corrupted), I cannot open it either in Parallels Desktop or in Image Tool to merge the snapshots, and I can't open it in Parallels...

Thank you, John. I did that, but when I started the virtual machine it required me to reinstall Ubuntu. After that, I had a working Ubuntu installation but none of the data from my original installation. The HDS file was too small to contain everything from my original installation. I assume...

When starting my Ubuntu VM, I suddenly got the message that the VM "seems to be not a valid Parallels virtual machine." I got that message for both my Windows and my Ubuntu guest OS's. I read through the Windows thread, http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=19187 and created a new...

*which* build will solve our troubles? John, I'm sorry, but I don't think I understand your answer. In build 5608 (the official and most recent build), were the tools that worked with Ubuntu 8 (Heron) removed, and fixed, working tools won't be available until the next build? Since the...
