Configuring the E17 environment

Enlightenment, otherwise known as E, is a window manager for the X Windows system. It was first released in 1997. It has lots of features, such as engage, virtual desktop, and tiling.

How to do it...

Due to compatibility issues and hassle regarding dependencies, it is better to download Kali with the E17 environment directly from the following URL: https://www.kali.org/downloads/.
The steps to set it up are simple: we just have to double-click and start the VM in VirtualBox or VMware.
