Want to use Ubuntu GNOME with a full desktop experience instead of just the command line? In this video, I’ll guide you step by step on how to install a lightweight desktop environment and set up XRDP for seamless remote access.
👉 Perfect for developers, beginners, or anyone who prefers working with a graphical interface (GUI) instead of only terminal commands.
⚡ But keep in mind: running a GUI on AWS EC2 servers is often not feasible because it consumes extra resources and costs more. Still, this setup is great for local servers, labs, or test environments.
🔑 What you’ll learn:
Installing Ubuntu GNOME desktop on your server
Setting up and configuring XRDP for remote access
Connecting from Windows/Mac using RDP
Pros & cons of running GUI on cloud servers like AWS
Commands
--------------------
sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop -y
sudo apt install xrdp -y
sudo systemctl enable xrdp
sudo systemctl start xrdp
sudo systemctl status xrdp
