    Hi so I installed Ubuntu on my parallels 3 on my macbook, when I tried to install parallels tools it prompted:

    "To install Parallels Tools:
    1. Run Terminal.
    2. Mount cdrom.
    3. Change the directory to cdrom.
    4. Run the sh parallels-tools.run with root privileges.
    5. Follow the instructions of the Parallels Tools Installer."

    So I did exactly this, after the cd was mounted, I run the terminal and run sh parallels-tools.run

    I got this message:

    "You are about to start installing Parallels Tools. Save your data and close all
    applications to prevent data loss during possible X-Server restart.
    Continue ? [Yes/No]:Yes
    Found xorg version .
    Installation for xorg.. not found."

    Anyone can help??

    this version of ubuntu is not supported in PD v3.
    That's it.

    I had no problem with parallel 4.
    just open a shell, go in cdrom and type $ sudo ./install

    that's all.
