How to Install and Configure GUI on a Cloudzy Linux VPS

If you need to use GUI on your Linux VPS, this tutorial will help you.

Cloudzy Linux servers are come with just the command-line by default, so if you want to use Linux GUI, your need to install and configure it manually.

We made this easy for you with our no-click script. The script will also enable you to connect to your VPS via RDP.

The script supports the Ubuntu and Debian servers. The latest versions are better. Bear in mind that for the best experience, at least 4Gb of RAM is required.

There are two Desktop Environments prepared, Gnome and Xfce. Gnome is Ubuntu's default DE and Xfce is a lightweight DE that is best known for its performance and is used in Kali Linux by default.

We recommend you install Xfce as it is much faster than Gnome.

How to install Xfce on your Linux VPS

To install Xfce, run the following commands while logged in to the VPS with the root user.

wget --user-agent="Mozilla" -O Cloudzy_Xfce.sh https://support.cloudzy.com/dl.php?type=d\&id=11
chmod +x Cloudzy_Xfce.sh
./Cloudzy_Xfce.sh

 

After running these commands, your VPS will reboot, and you can use RDP or VNC to connect to it when it boots again.

How to install Gnome on your Linux VPS

To install Gnome, run the following commands while logged in to the VPS with the root user.

wget --user-agent="Mozilla" -O Cloudzy_gnome.sh https://support.cloudzy.com/dl.php?type=d\&id=12
chmod +x Cloudzy_gnome.sh
./Cloudzy_gnome.sh

 

After running these commands, your VPS will reboot, and you can use RDP or VNC to connect to it when it boots again.
