rpi hdmi to vga with kali img

[sabanaregailia1]

So I have done this once before but it has been months and I remember I changed the display by going into my wheezy IMG file and editing it in the line that had the default display # option. Tried to do the same thing with the Kali IMG which I'm not a super computer geek.. Just started getting my feet wet and thought that the RPI would be a good place to start. Because I do not know much I was already kind of freaking out when my file didn't end in .IMG but rather .IMG.xz then finding a free source code editor that can handle the 2. something gb of txt of kali img for the rpi is impossible. However I did manage to view the file with large file viewer or some other app for windows, but to no avail because it is encrypted... So here I sit any advice would be greatly appreciated.. Just a side note everything I do to get this started is with a regular pc with windows 7 os. So if you know of a free code editor that can handle these large files that can be used on windows do tell, also what the encryption key is for Kali IMG file...

confirmed that it is not a display issue, used a regular hdmi hook up to hd tv and didnt get anything just a blank screen so now to try again on the download that came directly from kali.org...

several things needed done first that I was unaware of as a beginning linux user and a not so good computer tech... First the xz file still will not work so I downloaded a previous version the first version, unpackaged it with winrar and then extracted it to my pi boots folder. This worked no need for coded display change like in kali once I unpackaged the disk img and wrote it to my sd card with win32 disk imager everything was good... I am now on the first boot, and a little stuck with the first commands needed I already did the apt-get update with the ethernet plugged in now I need to see whats next for the boot. However this does immediately work with my vga monitor... I am so happy right now...
