In a linux vm.....the pipe key please please please. In the meantime I am using ssh to get in (to the virtual) and pipe works there 
Also I had a wierd thing happen....
I had another monitor hookrd up to the macbook pro (everything was working fine)
I had the vm on the alt screen and quit everything then shutdown.
powered on later, started up parallels and the VM screen selection came up.
I selected one, and no display.....
or from what I can figure....it was there since when I tried to quit parallels it complained about shutting down a vm and loosing data
bottom line i think it was displaying on the display...that was not there (btw I do not have any multi desktop/pager software installed)
any ideas ? (on the desktop, i know the keys will be fixed later)
