Kali 2.0 Style of 1.1.0a

[appo]

Hi all is possible to set on kali 2.0 style of kali 1.1.0a ?

[rootjb0]

Yes. Let me look thru my command history. I had to do this for my poor netbook

[KajalMehta]

Yes! almost all.

Would really appreciate if you could provide this! Using VMware workstation 11 on i7 laptop 8GB RAM, dedicated 4GB to Kali VM... it runs like ****.

Have you installed the vmware tools?
And there is a lite version with xfce instead of gnome. That should make one **** of a difference..

[rootjb0]

So sorry it took this long to respond. Family issues cropped up.

Anyway, here is what you wanna enter in your terminal:

# apt-get update && apt-get install gnome-flashback -y

# dbus-launch gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session session-name 'gnome-flashback'

Then run the following to be certain that it worked:

# gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.session session-name

It should spit out:

'gnome-flashback'

Then reboot and log in. If it says "OOPS! Something went wrong!" click log-out then after entering your username, click the gear icon next to the login button. Select gnome-flashback and see if that works.

Once again, sorry for the late response.

Hello rootjb0 and Whoa, I can hardly wait to try your solution! THANK YOU!
and to xzenor... I also installed Kali Lite, and it runs FAST. (It just wasn't as robust as I'd like.)

so let me get this straight. Post #6 is to make KL2 have the user interface of KL1 ?

[MrCapo]

yeah it seems good

Gosh, I tried gnome-flashback and it didn't make 2.0 look anything like 1.1.0. The best I could do was +Taskbar,
search for this thread: "Kali 2 + GNOME 3.10 = Customizations, Solutions & Tweaks".
Here's the link to that page, but my copy/paste might be messed up because I'm using a webproxy... anyhow, link:
