然而，当在Ubuntu 16.04 LTS上安装Parallels Tools时，一切正常。

Answer 1

Parallels Tools无法在kernels 4.15+上构建所需的内核模块。

请参阅https://forum.parallels.com/threads/fail-to-build-kernel-modules-on-linux-kernel-v4-15.343748/

作为一种变通办法，您可以尝试降级到4.14，但我没有看到任何预编译了4.14的内核包。您可能需要重新编译或查看是否有以前的每日版本为4.14 (不推荐)。

解决方案:等待Parallels发布更新。

Answer 2

如果您想让Parallels Tools在使用最新内核的发行版上完全正常工作，您可以使用我所做的修复：https://gist.github.com/rudolfratusinski/a4d9e3caff11a4d9d81d2e84abc9afbf

它考虑了对内核的最新更改(在本例中为timer.h)
