Parallels Tools for Linux Error Message :-(

Hi,

I tried to install Parallels Tools on my Linux, but it can't finishe the installation:

localhost cdrom # sh parallels-tools.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing Parallels Tools for Linux................................................................................
Found xorg version 7.2.0
Found xserver: xorg-7.2
Unable to get layout name


After this, the X-Server can't start any more, because /etc/X11/xorg.conf has allready be changed by Parallels Tools, and of course the X-Server can't find the prlvideo driver.
  • What is the meaning of this error message?
  • Has anybod any idea how to install Parallels Tools?
  • @Parallels: Please change config files after an installation had been succesful! So I had to figure out, why the X-Server isn't starting any more and to recopy my old xorg.conf :-(
Thanx a lot,
Oli
