    Hi,
    I'm trying the latest Big Sur beta on the latest Parallels trial version, and I can't get accelerated graphics to work (Including changing the resolution to anything higher than 1024x768). The host operating system is macOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G4032). Installing Parallels Tools does not seem to install the video driver, and installing "Parallels Tools Video 10.9.pkg" manually from inside the installer bundle makes the operating system freeze during boot (After about ¾ of the boot progress bar) until I reboot in Safe Mode to uninstall the kernel module.
    It's worth mentioning that I did not manage to install Big Sur like the official instructions instructed (Selecting the .app installer from New VM wizard) - After completing the Wizard, the newly created VM would freeze on the Apple logo without any progress bar. To bypass this issue, I added a second disk to the VM that already had macOS installed, and used that disk to install a fresh copy of Big Sur into the original hard drive.
    Any idea how to fix that and get proper video support?
    Thanks
