Suse 10.1 is available as of thursday at opensuse.org. My first impressions of using suse 10.1 in parallels is quite good. First: You can use full native screen resolution without editing system files as described here before for suse 10.0. Just remember to edit the settings in hardware setup right after the installation is finished. When first booting suse usually asks for user specific setups. The last screen is hardware setup. Set both screen resolution and monitor specs to 1440x900. Set the aspect ratio to 15.4 at 16:10 and color depth to 24 bit. When re-starting suse will boot up in native sreen resolution. USB Support is working, too. I had no problem attaching my usb stick. Just one thing remains: I still have no working network. If anyone has a clue here please let us know.
If you are trying to bridge to AirPort and use DHCP, this is broke in Linux. You will need to either bridge to the wired Ethernet or use host only networking and enable Mac network sharing between the AirPort and the Parallels adapter (usually en2). Before starting the Mac network sharing, be sure to run "sudo killall prl_dhcpd" in a Mac terminal window to disconnect the Parallels service and allow the Mac to provide dhcp. The final alternative is to assign a static IP address, gateway, and dns servers to the Linux interface -- the entries will be dependent on the network you are connected with.
Cannot get proper laptop resolution Hi, I tried to configure the proper screen resolution in the hardware configuration portion of the install (SUSE 10.1) at 1280x800 @ 60hz 16:10 but it will always default back to 1024x768 which is too large height-wise for my screen Any tips? Is this a Parallels setting (i.e. SUSE sees the virtual machine as being set as 1024x768) or a display (LINUX) thing? I was having the same troubles with kubuntu before so if it's display it crosses distros... Thanks
