如何安装具有GUI（gnome，kde，...）的Vagrant Linux盒？

Question

How do I install a Vagrant Linux box that has a Desktop GUI (gnome, kde, ...).

Is there a Vagrant box distribution that already has a Desktop environment?

After I do a "vagrant up" how do I log into this virtual box and with the GUI active?

This question is a duplicate with an extensive answer here: Using vagrant to run virtual machines with desktop environment

Yes, you need to enable the GUI in your vagrant file, but first you need to:

• Install Virtual Box Guest additions
• Install your desktop environment

From one of the answer in the link above ( https://stackoverflow.com/a/33138627/1412348 ), you can use the following vagrant file:

Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
  # Ubuntu 15.10
  config.vm.box = "ubuntu/wily64"

  config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
    # Display the VirtualBox GUI when booting the machine
    vb.gui = true
  end

  # Install xfce and virtualbox additions
  config.vm.provision "shell", inline: "sudo apt-get update"
  config.vm.provision "shell", inline: "sudo apt-get install -y xfce4 virtualbox-guest-dkms virtualbox-guest-utils virtualbox-guest-x11"
  # Permit anyone to start the GUI
  config.vm.provision "shell", inline: "sudo sed -i 's/allowed_users=.*$/allowed_users=anybody/' /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config"
end

Answer 2

If you want to enter the Desktop GUI, you can modify the Vagrantfile to add vb.gui = true . For example:

 config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb| # Display the VirtualBox GUI when booting the machine vb.gui = true # Customize the amount of memory on the VM: # vb.memory = "1024" end 

Then you can vagrant up and enter it from virtualbox.
