I downloaded the kali 64 bit version, 2016.1 and installed. Had some minor issues with the graphics card but it is working at the moment. My biggest concern is with the wireless nic. The card spits out some unsupported message in the dmesg. I did some googling and everything I found was several years old. Basically they said to update the drivers. I believe that this install is current, I ran apt-get update and nothing happened. Does anyone have any suggestion or do I just need to play the waiting game?
thank you for taking a look
