    Hello,

    I would like to first mention that I am trying to Trial the software for possible use.

    My operating system is. Linux Mint, a variant of Ubuntu 6.10 tree

    I think I have the minimum requirements installed to meet the dependency list, since the deb file said it was happy.

    The problem can be reduplicated by doing the following steps,

    Step 1: install linux mint.
    Step 2: run the deb, and install the package
    Step 3: in the terminal, run sudo parallels-config

    After type "Y" to accept the license agreement, the following is outputted onto my screen.

    Do you accept terms of license agreement ? (Y/N)

    What am I missing, I have tried the DEB version, and the Tar.gz version, and it has the same result. Any help, would be cool.

    Thank you for your time.
    Wil.
