    Ubuntu 22.

    04 GUI installation
    The purpose of this guide is to install a desktop environment on Ubuntu
    22.04 Jammy Jellyfish, whether you already have a GUI installed and
    wish to use a different desktop environment, or if you are only using the
    command line and would like access to a GUI.
    You can also use these instructions to install a GUI on Ubuntu Server
    22.04, which doesn’t have a desktop environment installed by default.
    Follow along with the step by step instructions below to install a GUI on
    Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish Server and Desktop.
    In this tutorial you will learn:
     How to install tasksel
     How to select GUI from tasksel tasks
     How to install GUI
     How to login to newly installed GUI
    There are numerous ways to install a GUI on Ubuntu 22.04. One of the
    easiest ways is with a tool called tasksel, which streamlines the
    process for us by automatically installing the correct window manager
    and other package dependencies.
    Start off by updating the apt package index and installing the tasksel
    tool with these Linux commands.
    $ sudo apt update
    $ sudo apt install tasksel

    Next, select the GUI you wish to install. Below table shows main
    desktop environments available for installation via tasksel:
    Task Description
    kubuntu-desktop Kubuntu desktop ( KDE Desktop )
    lubuntu-desktop Lubuntu Desktop ( LXQt desktop )
    ubuntu-budgie-desktop Ubuntu Budgie desktop
    ubuntu-desktop Ubuntu desktop ( default GNOME )
    ubuntu-desktop-minimal Ubuntu minimal desktop ( default GNOME )
    ubuntu-mate-desktop Ubuntu MATE desktop
    ubuntustudio-desktop Ubuntu Studio desktop ( Xfce-based desktop )
    ubuntustudio-desktop-core Ubuntu Studio minimal DE installation ( Xfce-
    based desktop )
    xubuntu-desktop Xubuntu desktop ( Xfce desktop )
    For additional GUI selection execute the below command:
    $ tasksel --list-tasks

    Once you have selected the GUI you wish to install on Ubuntu, execute
    the following tasksel command. As an example, we will install the
    default Ubuntu desktop environment, which is GNOME. But you may
    change this command to match your own selection.
    $ sudo tasksel install ubuntu-desktop

    After installation, reboot your system.


    $ reboot

    At this point, the GUI should start. You may need to select your desired
    desktop flavor on the login page before you login. In case the GUI is not
    starting at all, make sure your system boots into the graphical target. To
    do so execute:
    $ sudo systemctl set-default graphical.target
