Unman I have tried to download and install the following file as I expected 
the file to create a GUI Ubuntu desktop: 
https://qubes.3isec.org/Templates_4.0/qubes-template-bionic-desktop-4.0.1-202001121248.noarch.rpm

I got a template shortcut in the qube-menu, but I can't see any GUI Ubuntu 
desktop.

Shall I do some more to be able to get a window with the GUI Ubuntu 
desktop, and if so what ?
