I've installed the Ubuntu Artful (17.10) --- ubuntu-17.10.1-server-amd64.iso on my X86 server.

Now I need the desktop environment so I try to install the desktop:

apt update && apt install ubuntu-desktop && reboot

However, I get an interface as below:
enter image description here

In fact, it seems to work. I think this is the login interface... Besides, when I get such an interface, I have been able to ssh on the server, which means that the system has booted successfully.

How to fix this issue? I executed the same commands as above to install the desktop for Ubuntu 16.04 and it worked.

Installing the LightDM display manager to replace the default GDM3 can solve this problem:

apt install lightdm
