If you want to administer locally



You can install the default Ubuntu desktop by executing the following:



sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop




There are many desktop alternatives which you may install and use, like:




  • Gnome 3 installation: sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

  • KDE see Kubuntu installation: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

  • XFCE installation: sudo apt-get install xfce4

  • LXDE installation: sudo apt-get install lxde
