I recently installed Kali 2.0 thanks to the Kali forums. But now I have run into troubles regarding Wifi and touchpad.
1) Wifi doesn't show in the Networks in Settings and so there is no way I can connect to Wifi. It only shows PCI ethernet and Network Proxy. In the add network connection option also there is no Wifi.
2) Single tap to select and double tap to right click doesn't work here. But worked quite well in Windows (requires ASUS Smart Gesture). But two finger swipe to scroll worls in KAli too, without asus samrt gesture. So please suggest a method to add single tap(now i have to click with button in touchpad) and 2 finger tap to right click (now I have to press the right button).

Please Help.

Thanks in advance.

check those outputs:
sudo rfkill list

shoud be like:
1: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

if you see your wifi hard blocked yes then go to bios and just set "load bios at default setting" and restart.
if it is soft blocked read this how to perform task:
