I am facing dispay issues I will be really grateful if you can share me various trouble shooters/changes in varius files that I need to perform in order to run kali linux smoothly in on my laptop.
I seached alot on google about how to install Kali Linux on a laptop which has iris XE dedicated graphic card but all showed result about nvidia card nothing about the 12th gen processor with dedicated iris graphic card.
Problems I am facing :
Display is looking like windows XP (maybe it has something to with the resolution or my graphic card)
Backlit keyboard is not working
My Laptop Specs are :
i5 12th gen with intel's new dedicated iris graphic
16 GB ram 512 GB SSD
My Laptops's model number is : hp pavilion eg2035tu
I am also attaching output of some commands so as to give you an idea about my laptop
(these commands are not from KALI linux because I was facing issues with KALI linux so I installed Ubuntu and ran the commands)
