It seems like parallels or ubuntu f'ed it up by changing the gcc version. I was unable to install the tools and got the following error: Started installation of Parallels Guest Tools version '19.2.1.54832' modprobe: FATAL: Module prl_tg not found in directory /lib/modules/6.5.0-21-generic sudo /media/username/Parallels Tools/installer/install-cli.sh Mo 26 Feb 2024 14:32:41 CET Start installation or upgrade of Guest Tools warning: the compiler differs from the one used to build the kernel The kernel was built by: x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc-12 (Ubuntu 12.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 12.3.0 You are using: cc (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.4.0 cc: error: unrecognized command-line option '-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero' make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:251: /usr/lib/parallels-tools/kmods/prl_tg/Toolgate/Guest/Linux/prl_tg/prltg.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [/usr/src/linux-headers-6.5.0-21-generic/Makefile:2039: /usr/lib/parallels-tools/kmods/prl_tg/Toolgate/Guest/Linux/prl_tg] Error 2 make[2]: *** [Makefile:234: __sub-make] Error 2 make[1]: *** [Makefile:44: prl_tg] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile.kmods:54: compile] Error 2 Error: could not build kernel modules modprobe: FATAL: Module prl_tg not found in directory /lib/modules/6.5.0-21-generic modprobe: FATAL: Module prl_tg not found in directory /lib/modules/6.5.0-21-generic Error: failed to install Parallels Guest Tools!

Same problem here. Actually in my case it works with Ubuntu 22.04, it doesn't work with Ubuntu 24.04. Only "modprobe: FATAL: Module prl_tg not found in directory /lib/modules/6.8.0-35-generic". Installed and uninstalled many times, searched on google a fix, tried many suggestion on internet... nothing works... I am just loosing hours and hours. I believe I will stop using parallel and go to UTM, it is horrible to have a VM without shared drive and without shared copy/paste. Is there any other way to share clipboard and folder beside Parallel Tools? Something WORKING instead parallel tools? Thanks.
Hello! In order to proceed with further investigation, kindly provide us with the below information: 1. Reproduce the issue. 2. Collect a technical report (right-click Parallels icon in Dock > Help > Send technical data > check "Attach screenshots..." > press Send Report) and send the report's 9-digit ID in a reply. Thank you!
Same issue here , upgrade from Open_SuSE 15.5 to 15.6 and stopped working Every time a guess after update parallels to the new version if parallels tools wil work ;-(
