My Max Studio with M1 Max running MacOS Ventura 13.2.1 and Parallels 18.2.0 has a 10 gig ethernet connection that is an 802.1q VLAN trunk. There are only a few vlans, home (vlan 10), iot (20), and lab (40) configured. MacOS has built-in vlan support, so the host has no issues connecting to any...

Hi, With MacOS 13, Apple implemented the ability to use Rosetta as a translation layer in linux guest VMs - this behavior works on UTM, but AFAIK is not supported in Parallels. Is it possible to enable this feature? It makes running x86-64 applications in linux guest VMs (notably, many...

Apple has documented this feature on Ventura: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization/running_intel_binaries_in_linux_vms_with_rosetta. AFAIK, UTM has supported this feature. It would be ideal for Parallels to add this function as cross-architecture-compile is much needed on...

Is it possible to get the coherence mode for VM Linux back to work?

Hello, I have been reading that Coherence was available with Ubuntu in the past. Is it expected to get that feature in parallel 18? Thank you Marco

I'm running Ubuntu as a Vi and use Yubikey (USB keycard) for authentication, but after update to 17.1.0 it no longer work. Running "gpg --card-status" would give me info about the Yubikey, but after update to 17.1.0 "gpg --card-status" only show the following: gpg: selecting card failed: No such...

I bought Parallels 17 to run Linux VMs on my M1 Mac. I installed (from the ISO) Debian 11 Linux with XFCE4 in a VM, and ran into a few issues. These issues do not occur on my x86_64 laptop running the same exact same software natively, so I doubt it's a problem with the distro. I also tried...

Linux 5.14 continues on from 5.13 renaming kernel structures, causing Parallels Tools build to fail. This patch seems to work in very limited testing. I do not know what this code does, use at your own risk. --- prldrm.c.orig 2021-09-09 23:59:05.384654927 +0800 +++ prldrm.c 2021-09-10...

I have written an application in Unity that I would like to test on Linux using Parallels on Mac. I installed Mint but when I tried to run the app it fails, being unable to locate the OpenGL libraries. I did find this in the Knowledge Base from 2018 that indicates there is no OpenGL support in...

Whenever I try to use one of the four "Free Systems" shown at the bottom of the Installation Assistant's Create New screen, nothing happens. I select the distro, click continue, and the screen flashes momentarily before going back to the Control Center. This wasn't always the case, but I can't...

Hi -- Parallels Tools install is broken on Linux 5.13 due to a change in one of the structure names. For those who have manually changed the Parallels kernel module source in order to work around compatibility issues with Linux kernels, can you please post the process that you follow to install...

Dear Parallels-Team, a properly working coherence mode is the main selling point of your software. I guess many customers/potential customers will want this feature again. If I just want a full screen linux system I could just use Virtual Box. However, a nice integration like in the past would...

There is no option to automatically install CentOS as a guest os when using a Mac with Apple Silicon. Also, downloading the arm64 centos installer continuously restarts when trying to install in Parallels on Apple Silicon.

Following "Choose Manual" installation instructions from a DVD or image file, Customize settings before installation. Set the CD/DVD to Source "bionic-server-arm64.iso" located in the MAC Downloads folder. Operation Failed. You must enter the host OS administrator's credentials. which is me. Did...

The PRLVIDEO driver in guest tools is using a very outdated technology: Xinerama extension. All major Linux distributions switched to XRandR about a decade ago. I think it is time for Parallels do the same :). P.S. Also, if Parallels wants to make a huge impact -- open source your guest tools...

Parallels needs to work with the most recent Manjaro bistro version 20.

Would you please add OpenGL 3.3 support to Linux OS?

Hi! I have been really annoyed by the default Linux profile for keyboard shortcuts, that says it would send Option< as Alt+7 to Linux. The actual effect is that just pressing Option sends Alt+7 to the Linux! This is causing all kinds of shortcuts trigger, depending on application being used...

Parallels needs to support Manjaro.

Deepin Linux is one of the most beautiful Linux distribution you can find and it is getting quite popular. Recently, even some of Huawei's computers have Deepin Linux pre-installed. It has recently become one of the most popular Linux distribution out out there (Ranked #5 on Distrowatch). It...
