Hi Guys,

This might be right in front of my face, but I cant see it..

I am pulling my hear out trying to get a desktop GUI for server. Everywhere I look there are instructions for using gnome, but I really want to install unity on server.

I found one site which instructed.. sudo apt-get install unity.

But a reboot returns me to command prompt, and when I type unity I just get a gconf error.

No module named gconf...

I have searched the site for a guide, or instructions.. have searched google and found a guide for unity 5 which also fails.

Any help appreciated...

In terminal:

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop

Its a 160MB download and will give you unity desktop.
