Install LXDE for server environment (Ubuntu Server/Debian)

Given an server environment with Ubuntu Server or Debian (netinst) they came without a GUI (Graphical User Interface), then sometimes its need a GUI for help some complex (and boring) operations. So we choose to install LXDE as very light GUI. LXDE is a free desktop environment with comparatively low resource requirements.

To install on Ubuntu/Debian:

$ sudo apt-get install lxde xinit --in-install-recommends

To start as normal user:

$ startx

To start as root:

$ sudo startx
