After restarting, there will be a prompt suggesting that you choose to keep the old name . In the future, typing the code in English will definitely be much more convenient than typing in Chinese!

Now it’s Chinese!

Chinese input method installation (take googlepinyin as an example, some kali Linux systems Sogou input method does not support switching to Chinese)

(1) Change source

deb http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
deb-src http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib

execute an order apt-get update;
execute an order apt-get upgrade;

Since this machine has been demonstrated previously, it will not be shown here again...

（2）

• Install fcitx framework

sudo apt install fcitx

（3）

• Install Google input method (the prerequisite is to change the system language to Chinese first)
