Published with Ghost. Another big release of Ubuntu has gone live since the 26th of April: Ubuntu I wanted to try it out and so I went ahead and installed the desktop edition in Parallels Desktop. So far I can only tell you that Parallels does at the time of writing this article not support kernel version 4. I have fixed this by downgrading to kernel version 4. In this article I am demonstrating every step so that you can enjoy a fresh and working Ubuntu Please note: Parallels added support for Ubuntu You still need to follow this guide if you happen to run an older version of Parallels though, or in case if Parallels Tools still doesn’t work for you.

This guide is for people who are familiar with working in a terminal window. Things can get really technical, so please warm yourself up for some hackery.

For the people who are unfamiliar with working in a terminal window: you are better off with skipping Ubuntu It is quite possible that any kernel version lower than 4. Make sure to check out kernel. At the time of writing this article, 4.

Fetching older kernel versions for Ubuntu is quite convenient, as Canonical provides the community with prebuilt kernels of literally any version you could wish for. Go ahead and see for yourself! Ofcourse, do this inside your VM. And replace the version number with a newer number if available.

This will install your downloaded kernel along with its headers and modules. This step is mandatory because if you didn’t do this, you would still boot with the 4. It’s time to reboot your VM. Please note that it might take very long think about four to eight minutes to boot, this is a bug and I am not sure what’s causing it.

Anyway, you can install Parallels Tools after you have logged in. If you don’t know how to do that: in the menu bar, go to Actions, Install Parallels Tools. It can also be that it is called Reinstall Parallels Tools for you. Click it, and you’ll see that an optical disk with the label ‘Parallels Tools’ has been mounted inside your VM. Open it, and copy all the contents from the drive to your Documents folder. We now need to make all files inside this directory executable in order to successfully install Parallels Tools.

Install libelf-dev too with the command sudo apt install libelf-dev as it is required as a dependency for the build process. Execute the command sudo. Make sure to remove the downloaded files and the Tools installation files in the Documents folder. Reboot your VM and you should see that everything works: 3D acceleration, bigger screen sizes, better mouse integration.

If something did not work for you, please tell me in the comments. If it did work for you, congratulations! Author Bart Simons.

Oct 31,  · Greetings, Version () for Parallels was just released and still doesn’t include support for Ubuntu I’d like to request that the next maintenance update to Parallels 14 provides official support for ubuntu so that Linux enthusiasts and developers don’t have to migrate to competitor software (i.e. vmware fusion or virtualbox). Link download k download Ubuntu ?usp=sharing. Nov 22,  · Resolves an issue with Parallels Transporter Agent crashing periodically on a remote computer because of conflicts with OpenGL.

Other improvements: Resolves an issue with two identical Recovery Partitions available in the Free Systems section of the Installation Assistant. Resolves an issue when a Mac has two Recovery Partitions with different versions of macOS, a user chooses to install macOS from one partition but Parallels Desktop installs it from the other.
