Here is what I end up with:

859454051_rgBa6-L.png


Is Ubuntu 10.04 not supported yet in tools? Please let me know as this will determine whether or not I keep Parallels for Windows & Linux. Not to sound snarky... But if it won't work 100% then I will wait until later to pick it up. That being said though, I would LOVE to make this work. I am a Parallels fan for OSX and use it on my MacBook Pro. It is the best. So, that is why I grabbed the Windows version on Newegg shell shocker yesterday. Anyway, please help me figure these tools out before I go mad!
Thanks!
 
For sure BorisI. The Parallels team got back to me that this version is not YET supported. They had no indication as to when this would be supported though. I hope they hurry before I get to attached to VMware because it has been working just fine with 10.04 for some time now.
