Ubuntu 10.10 - Parallels Build 11828 - OpenGL?

Hey!
Just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my Unibody Macbook with neweste Parallels Tools, updated everything and so on...

Seems there is a Problem with OpenGL. glxgears and some GL programs work, some others won't.
Tux Racer for example is one of them.

After starting a "not working GL Program" the Desktop is still shown, the Program is shown as running, the window outline is shown in the small desktop switcher icons in the lower right corner, but the window itself isn't visible.
I can't click the Desktop where the GL Window should be, so i assume there is a invisible OpenGL Layer ontop?

Anyone got a solution? Thanks in advance!
Toby

Same problem!!! VMD OpenGL doesn't work Ubuntu 10.10 Parallels 6

I have the same problem. An OpenGL program that I used under Ubuntu 8.1 & 10.10 in Parallels 4 & 5 without any troubles is NOT working under Parallels 6!!!!! The program is VMD (Visual Molecular Dynamics). This is frustrating since the reason I am using parallels is to run this program under Linux. The non-OpenGL portions of this program work fine, the OpenGL buffer does not show up in either full-screen or in window mode.

Please look into this.
