Install Ubuntu On Parallels Desktop 17 On M1 Mac

[@MikeypoloVR]

I didn’t forget to hit that sub button , I appreciate the tutorial. Hopefully I can become a commandline guy soon too lol

[@TechTroublemaker]

Linux at the command line is so much more powerful than the gui.

@@TechTroublemaker ngl im not really sure. i just needed a tutorial to install ubuntu on parallels cuz i need it to test some software. It was like really good tho. Thanks :)

[@natyfbg]

I can not see a "New" option under file in my parallel drop down menu

[@TechTroublemaker]

Sometimes Parallels acts funny and you have to click on the icon in the Dock for Parallels for the menu to show like it should. Try that and let me know.

​@@TechTroublemaker Actually, I'm interested in Linux and Ubuntu specifically, if you have some tips and tutorials about it, thank you.

[@LuisClement]

Hey great, do you know how to get Steam to install as well ?

[@TechTroublemaker]

I do. I will try and get a video out on it soon.

[@LuisClement]

@@TechTroublemaker Please please please tried everything and got know where...

[@php4u]

Thank you for the tutorial. I am able to use Firefox, so Internet works. However, under Settings > Online Accounts - I get the error; No Internet Connection. Any suggestions?

[@TechTroublemaker]

Nothing obvious jumps out. I am puzzled by Firefox working. What have you tried so far?

[@bharadwaj113]

thank you sir

[@TechTroublemaker]

You are welcome. Thank you for watching.

[@lmagus]

Hi! How can I view shared directories from Mac inside Linux terminal? Great video!

[@TechTroublemaker]

In the Parallels Menu, if you go to Actions, Configure, then Options, look for Sharing. You can tell Parallels what you want to share with your Ubuntu VM. This assumes you have the Parallels VM tools installed, which usually happens right after you complete installing your VM. Let me know.

[@lmagus]

@@TechTroublemaker Thanks, that worked. But only with the desktop version of Linux. It did not work with the server version. Thanks for the VM tools tip!

[@TechTroublemaker]

@@lmagus are you using the GUI on the server version? Or are you wanting to access your Mac folders command line?

[@rikkyNZ]

[@TechTroublemaker]

[@nicktoelen3479]

Thank you very much for this helpful tutorial! I'm having one issue though: my keyboard in Ubuntu is set to English (US), which is qwerty, but I'm on an azerty keyboard. In the setting I can't really find a way to change this. Do you know of a solution?

[@TechTroublemaker]

Maybe. So assuming French since that seems to be the one most used with Azerty. So go first in Ubuntu, Settings, then Regional and add French (or your appropriate language). Then go to Keyboard, Click + under Input Sources, Click on the three vertical Dots, then choose Other (you have to click on Other for this to work), then in the search bar start typing French (or your appropriate language) and hopefully you will see Your language with Awerty, select it and then click Add Button. If you want it to be primary you may want to drag it above whatever is your current default. Note: The first time you choose Region, it may require installing the multi-language support if it has not been installed previously). Let me know if that works. I am very curious now. It worked for me but I never took French so I can truly test it.

[@TechTroublemaker]

If under Regional you don't get the languages you expect to see, you may have to run this command in the terminal -- _gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources true_

[@JosieWicklund]

I got some depends and red on the download part :(

[@TechTroublemaker]

Give me more details on what you are seeing.

[@JosieWicklund]

@@TechTroublemaker instead of [ok] it says [depend] for 6 rows all related to SSSD. such as : Dependency failed for SSSD NSS service responder socket.

[@JosieWicklund]

all of them involve sockets too

[@JosieWicklund]

@@TechTroublemaker hey, I couldn't find a solution for this but I reset the VM a few times and for some reason that solved the errors. lol thanks!

[@TechTroublemaker]

@@JosieWicklund Glad it is working. Sorry it is a puzzle though as to why that worked.
