Ubuntu 6.06 and Parallels

I had Parallels installed on my Ubuntu 6.06 system earlier and had no problems. I decided to purchase it for that reason, no installation problems. I had a serious hardware problem and decided to upgrade my computer. I now have a AMD dual core CPU and two SATA drives, one with Ubuntu and one with XP. I installed Parallels on my Ubuntu 6.06 system and now when trying to "parallels-config" I get the following message:

Compiling Parallels Workstation 2.2 drivers...

Can not compile and/or link drivers. Read /usr/lib/parallels/doc/INSTALL
and follow instructions specified in this document.


I have the correct linux-headers installed and I can't get it past this point. Any sugguestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob :)
 
I'm currently evaluating Parallels 2.2 on Kubuntu 6.06. I've finished installing (using the .deb package) and confugration (parallels-config). I get this error message when I try to issue "parallels" from the command line:

Code:
Parallels Workstation 2.2 RC critical error! Send log file ( /usr/lib/parallels/bugreports/parallels-fault-020603.010906.14678.log ) to reports@parallels.com


/usr/bin/parallels: line 12: 14678 Segmentation fault      /usr/lib/parallels/parallels-linux

Any ideas what's wrong?

Someone else had this problem a bit ago and it was related to a library being renamed on launch. Try running Parallels as root and see if it helps: sudo parallels

Hmm... it worked with sudo. Is there a way so that I don't have to run Parallels as root?
