Hi @shubham432,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

When you encounter a "blacklisting problem" in Kali Linux, it typically refers to issues with certain hardware components or drivers being blacklisted or disabled. A blacklist is a mechanism in Linux to prevent specific modules or drivers from being loaded during the boot process.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

Check system logs.

• When booting up Kali Linux, keep an eye on the boot messages and error logs. Pressing "Esc" or "F2" during boot may display valuable information about what's causing the problem.
• You can also check logs using the dmesg command or review the /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog files for any relevant error messages.

Identify the blacklisted hardware or drivers.

• The error messages should provide information about the hardware component or driver being blacklisted.
• Common components that might be blacklisted include wireless cards, graphics cards, and sound cards.

Check the blacklist files.

• In Kali Linux, blacklisted modules are usually specified in the /etc/modprobe.d/ directory.
• Open the blacklist configuration file, such as /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, and see if any relevant entries are present.

Remove or modify the blacklist entries.

• If you find the blacklisted entry causing the issue, you can either remove it from the blacklist file or comment it out by adding a # at the beginning of the line.
• Use a text editor like nano or vim to edit the file. For example.
• sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Update the initramfs.

• After making changes to the blacklist file, update the initramfs to apply the changes during the boot process.
• Use the following command to update the initramfs.
• sudo update-initramfs -u

Reboot the system.

• After performing the above steps, reboot the laptop to see if the issue has been resolved.

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
