Those Ubuntu packages provide different GUIs.

To my knowledge, ubuntu-desktop provides the Unity GUI, xubuntu-desktop the Xfce GUI, kubuntu-desktop the KDE GUI, etc.

What are your specific needs in a GUI?

hi ,
thanks for your reply,

i need the GUI, because i need to web login to connect to internet.
basically i just need GUI for web browser only.

A CLI browser should be fine for that. Have a look. There are a fair few of them.
