— OK, I am new here and I have been using linux for a while now. I am new to Parrot OS though. I use my old 2015 Macbook Pro laptop. I have installed all current DE versions of both Home and Security of ParrotOS and I get a white overlay on my screen. It goes over top most applications to the point that I can barely install the OS using the installer. I have to adjust the window size just a bit to be able to see some of the installer window. I am currently running the latest KDE - Security version as I want to learn more about pentesting and after research I landed on ParrotOS for the huge selection of tools including the tools from the ParrotOS team. I run Fedora as my daily distribution and will be dual booting with Fedora for this ParrotOS. I have tried updating and even killing the GUI in a tty and then waiting a bit and restarting it. It does make the OS unusable for me. I saw one forum thread somewhere a few weeks ago that said to change the resolution and it worked for them. I believe it was an older version though and the only resolution I can sometimes get it to work on is 800x600, which is just an unusable resolution. I am out of ideas and would love the community and ParrotOS teams help if I can! I greatly appreciate it!
