Kali Linux 2023.2 Release Adds a New Hyper-V Image and PipeWire to XFCE Variant
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Kali Linux 2023.2 is a good upgrade with new feature additions and enhancements.
|
||||
|
||||
![kali linux 2023.2 release][1]
|
||||
|
||||
The [penetration testing-focused][2] Kali Linux distro has been around for some time now. Its robust set of tools has made it the de facto choice for many pen testers worldwide.
|
||||
|
||||
Earlier[this year][3], they **celebrated their 10th Anniversary** by launching a new '**Kali Purple**' distro. Now they have a new Kali Linux release that promises to offer some exciting improvements.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's go through it.
|
||||
|
||||
### 🆕 Kali Linux 2023.2: What's New?
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Kali Linux 2023.2 is a packed release, with [Linux Kernel 6.1][5] powering it. Some notable highlights of this release include:
|
||||
|
||||
- **PipeWire Support**
|
||||
- **Desktop Upgrades**
|
||||
- **Updated App Icons and Menu**
|
||||
|
||||
#### PipeWire Support
|
||||
|
||||
![a screenshot of the pipewire implementation on kali linux 2023.2][6]
|
||||
|
||||
Kali Linux's default desktop, **XFCE, now uses** [**PipeWire**][7] for handling all the audio and video tasks across the system.
|
||||
|
||||
But, as you can see, its **implementation is slightly different than usual**. They had to use the compatibility layer '[**pipewire-pulse**][8]' to make it happen on XFCE, as it does not support it by default.
|
||||
|
||||
As an end-user, you won't notice anything different except the improvements offered by PipeWire over PulseAudio.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Desktop Upgrades
|
||||
|
||||
Kali Linux 2023.2 features some extensive upgrades for the various desktop experiences.
|
||||
|
||||
**In the case of XFCE**, apart from the PipeWire integration, a pre-installed extension is offered for the file manager called '[GtkHash][9]'.
|
||||
|
||||
This is meant to provide a simple way to **quickly compute checksums**, one has to simply right-click on a file and open the 'Checksums' tab, doing away with the need to open a terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
![][10]
|
||||
|
||||
**In the case of GNOME**, this release of Kali Linux now features [GNOME 44][11], which will give you access to various new features such as an **improved quick settings menu**, **better file manager**, **file thumbnails,** and more.
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
That's not all; the devs have also introduced a new extension called '[Tiling Assistant][13]' for the GNOME version of Kali.
|
||||
|
||||
This extension now puts the GNOME version of Kali on par with the tiling experience found on the likes of KDE and XFCE.
|
||||
|
||||
The **Kali i3 desktop received a complete rework** with many improvements across the board; a long-time user of i3 and Kali contributor, Arszilla worked on it.
|
||||
|
||||
![][14]
|
||||
|
||||
Though, keep in mind that if you want to try this out, the easiest way would be to build a custom installer ISO that has an i3 desktop.
|
||||
|
||||
You can refer to its [GitHub repo][15] for more info.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Updated App Icons and Menu
|
||||
|
||||
![][16]

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### 🛠️ Other Changes and Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
Other than the changes mentioned above, here are a few that are worth noting:
|
||||
|
||||
- **A new Hyper-V image for better performance on virtual machines.**
|
||||
- **Python PIP behavior changes.**

||||
