Gedit doesn't work in Kali 2020

Unix & Linux Asked by Mate Mrše on February 1, 2021

Kali 2020 doesn’t come with gedit pre-installed.

After installing with

sudo apt-get install gedit

and trying to run, I get an error message:

┌──(kali㉿kali)-[/root]
└─$ gedit test.txt
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused

(gedit:3673): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:16:31.911: cannot open display: 

How can I fix this?

EDIT:

I’m actually running a Kali virtual machine with VMWARE.
