    Updating of Linux pvm is stalled

    I've upgraded Parallels to 18.3.3 on my iMac with MacOS 11.7.10. I attempted to install Parallels on an old Ubuntu Linux pvm, but the installation stalled. The pvm is now listed as "suspended." Restarting the pvm brings up the file listing, and restarting the installation just does the same...

    Unable to install Linux on M4 with Parallels 20

    Hi, I posted in the M4 thread but hoping to get some response in a separate thread... Installing Debian Stable, Debian Testing, and Kali Linux using the ARM64 isos always seems to segfault when the installer gets to installing the kernel. I've tried with weekly and daily builds of the above...

    Linux VM freezing for 3-20 secs randomly (Parallels 20.1.1 on M4MAX)

    Hi, I am new to Parallels, and so far everything has been working very well. However, I keep running into those temporary freezes when working inside a Fedora 41 Linux VM on a M4MAX MBP. Any ideas what might be causing it or ways to troubleshoot what might be the cause? Thank you in advance!

    Linux for Steam Gaming?

    DirectX 12 Windows limitations prevent running of many modern Windows games in Parallels. The Steam on the Steam Deck can play native Linux games, or use Proton play many Windows games. Steam in Linux I believe can do likewise. Is it possible to use Parallels to install Linux, and use Steam in...

    Parallels Tools should be independent of the Kernel Version

    I am currently running Parallels Version 19.1.1 (54734) on my Macbook M2 (Apple Silicon) laptop. I installed a Kali Image which has its kernel version as 6.11.2-arm64 and hence, parallel tools can't be installed because its only supported for kernel versions <= 6.8. However, I find this...

    Oracle Linux and Database

    The title says it all. I'd love to log in someday and see an ISO for Oracle Linux with the free DBMSs included. Free BSD would also be great when it's ready!

    Arch/Manjaro ARM64 Support

    Basically what the title says, I would love to see a "pre packaged" Arch or Manjaro option like there is for Debian and Fedora when setting up a new VM. Thank you

    Problem with Linux virtual machine in Parallels 20

    Since upgrading to Parallels 20 I can no longer suspend and resume my Debian VM successfully. It appears to work as normal, however when I resume, the VM has a wildly inaccurate date, which causes all sorts of things to fail. This happens every time that I suspend in 20, but never happened...

    I have tried several times to install Parallels Tools on a Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon virtual machine on my Mac mini 2012 running Catalina.

    Display resolution not preserved when using full resolution on Linux

    The issue is when we set the OS display scale at 200% on UHD displays, as the 3840x2160 resolution is not detected. The list goes from 2560x1600 and steps to 4096x2160, missing 3840x2160, so it resets to a lower one. If go to VM config, set to Scaled, then again to Full, then the 3840x2160 is...

    Fedora 38 will go end-of-life in 6 days, on 2024-05-21. Most importantly, that means no more security updates will be published. Fedora 38 is still the version of Fedora that Parallels will download and set up when selecting Fedora from the VM creation dialog. Will a supported version of...
