    Anyone succeeded in getting Parallels installed on FC5? I keep getting a failed dependency for libXft.so.1, and cannot get past that. Suggestions? Thanks in advance...

    Please try to install from .tgz package.

    You should be able to install with:

    rpm -ivh Parallels-2.1.1670-lin.i386.rpm --nodeps

    And get a working installation. USB is not connecting properly to a Windows XP SP2 installation, but this should be unrelated to the libXft issue.
