    Hello,

    Is it possible for me to install Parallels on my MBP running SL 10.6.4 and Ubuntu 10.04 without having to reinstall my Ubuntu?

    You can tell Parallels to use the Boot Camp partition that Ubuntu was installed on. If you install Parallels Tools to Ubuntu it will affect your X config file which will cause problems when you boot using Boot Camp. So backup the file before booting Ubuntu into Parallels.
