In open Ubuntu 18.04 machine click Parallels Actions -> "Install Parallels Tools"
A "Parallels Tools" CD will popup on your Ubuntu desktop.
Open it by double mouse click, copy all the content to a new, empty directory on a desktop, name it for e.g. "parallels_fixed"
Open terminal, change directory to parallels_fixed (cd ~/Desktop/parallels_fixed
)
Make command line installer executable (chmod +x install
)
Change directory to "installer" (cd installer
)
Make few other scripts executable: chmod +x installer.* *.sh prl_*
