Kali-Clean

My kali i3 desktop setup. Some people have been asking so I wrote a quick installer to get going.

After cloning the repo just run ./install.sh from a non-root user. This updates kali and installs a lot of stuff, so it will take a while. Feel free to optimize ;)

Installation

./install.sh

After the script is done reboot and select i3 (top right corner) on the login screen. Then open a terminal (ctrl+return) run lxappearanceand select ark-dark theme and change the icons to whatever you like (I used papyrus).

kali-clean's Issues

alacritty error

Kali-themes install error

kali-clean requires this kali package called kali-themes. However, I explored some issues while trying so many attempts to install this specific package, is there any possibility for someone to guide me on how to install that package?

Add VPN status in i3bar

Hey @xct, 👋

Nice setup. I end up using yours :)

Because you do lot of HTB and VPN IP might change in between connections, I propose an addition to your setup: Add VPN IP in i3 bar

In my conf (=i3blocks.conf), I have added this section :

# VPN
#
[iface]
instance=tun0
color=#3BB92D
label=🆙
interval=120
#separator=false

Cheers and thanks for the videos and good repos

i3 Gap

Kali VM freeze on login after installation

Hi,

I've tried it on Kali VM for vmware workstation and it freezes.
After selecting i3 and login in, I can only see the wallpaper. No desktop icons, and nothing works including shortcuts (like to start a terminal).

Kindly look into that.
