Hi I am making an Ubuntu 18.04 server with xfce on top. The reason is that I want a cloud VM with X.
I followed the instructions https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/initial-server-setup-with-ubuntu-16-04 and https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-16-04 which correspond to these commands [1] I can connect fine to the remote machine via VNC and I can do GUI actions like clicking on the time, the startup/xfce mouse menu. However, when I click on the terminal nothing happens. dpgk shows that 0.8.7.3-0ubuntu1 is installed. Any ideas on how I can debug/solve the problem?
