How to add new desktop in Ubuntu

You can install all of the packages that come with one of the flavors of Ubuntu, such as Kubuntu, with just a simple command. You need to have administrator rights to do this.

Sometimes you are not sure what packages to add in order to run KDE or Xfce window managers on a stock Ubuntu system or what packages to add to run GNOME on Kubuntu or Xubuntu. You could add all of the necessary packages one at a time.

To install all of the packages that come with one of the flavors of Ubuntu, such as Kubuntu, run -
apt-get install kubuntu-desktop (or edubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop, or xubuntu-desktop).


Note: Please make sure that you need to have administrator rights to do this step.

       
If the GUI is more your style, the desktop packages can be installed using Adept, Synaptic, or another package manager.
