    I have Ubuntu 8 installed successfully in Parallels 5, with the updated parallels tools set.

    However, for some reason when I click and drag a window, it will ONLY go left. Even if I click and drag right, it slowly creeps left. If I try to move it too many times, it will eventually slide right off the left side of the screen.

    Any help?

    I'm having the same problem. It's very frustrating. No one knows what's up with this?

    Same problem here. Parallels 5 and Ubuntu 8.04 on Mac OS X 10.6. Latest updates on everything.

    It only affects windows that touch the top of the screen. If a window opens in a location that does not touch the top of the screen, it can be moved. If you then drag it to the top, it gets stuck. Any windows that initially opens up touching the top of the screen gets stuck. It will only move left in this case, no matter which direction you move the mouse.

    This makes Ubuntu 8.04 unusable with Parallels 5. According to this, Parallels 5 is suppose to support Ubuntu 8.04.
