parallels-config loops forever on linus git HEAD

Hello,
parallels-config loops foever. I ran the command manual and get the following:

(mini) [/usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor] make -C /lib/modules/2.6.17-rc3/build SUBDIRS=/usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor SRCROOT=/usr/lib/parallels/drivers/hypervisor modules && mv -f hypervisor.ko hypervisor.o
make: Entering directory `/home/sithglan/work/mini/linux-2.6'

make -C /lib/modules/2.6.17-rc3/build SUBDIRS=/home/sithglan/work/mini/linux-2.6 SRCROOT=/home/sithglan/work/mini/linux-2.6 modules && mv -f hypervisor.ko hypervisor.o

has anyone an idea howto debug this?

sound familiar

it's exactly what I'm experiencing with SuSE 10.1 (linux 2.6.16.13)

 

I saw this problem before. I circumvented this problem by using kernel 2.6.12.5 which works for me like a charm. I have two ideas what is going wrong here: First is that the provided build infrastructure for the parallels kernel drivers are just broken, or that are some symbols which were available in 2.6.12.5 are no longer available in later versions which causes a compile problem and the build infrastructure loops forever. However I wasn't able to get a compiler error, but I didn't tried that hard either.

Same problems here. Anyone get paralles to work with the suse linux 2.6.16.13 kernel. don't want to downgrade my kernel as a work around----any comments from the parallels team? ?

 

Now we got an reaction from paralles team. I hope we now get soon the answers to this problem.


Look at http://forum.parallels.com/thread2121.html
