LCD-35C-show not compatible with Raspberry Pi 4 Kali Linux 64 bit

[Aethernite]

After installing the 64-bit Kali Linux on my Raspberry Pi 4 the LCD show script doesn't seem to work. It fails to pull dependencies and reboots the RPI. The result from that is a white screen and HDMI connector not working (because the script disables it). To go around that issue I had to use the 32-bit Kali Linux image.

got it running on Pi 4B with kernel 6.1 on bullseye and bookworm (Raspberry PI OS 64-bit version) following [waveshare wiki instructions] (https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/3.5inch_RPi_LCD_(C)#Install_the_touch_driver)
(example for C version)

also assuming x-org is used (and not wayland on bookworm)

following must be run with root privilege:

./LCD35C-show

# now
sudo  ./LCD35C-show

then updating (or creating) /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbdev.conf as mentioned here:

...
  # output to LCD screen
  Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb1"

  # or replace with this to output to HDMI instead
  Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"
...
