@Sizomu there is a way to install a gnome-core interface. not sure of the exact way to install it, as it has been a long time since i did it last. and all it installs in terminal, web browser and text editor... i think. ill have a google around and maybe make a video. absolutely flat out with college assignments and working a lot at the moment too. but ill try soon. thanks for watching.

How about the difference with the "Low-Resources" Dekstop?

I am new to Linux and wanting to set-up A Proxy+Fileserver. so I just tried - Apt-get install Gnome. I got a minimalistic GUI, any Tips on just keeping it Minimum? I like to see what I am doing, With CLI, I feel blinded. Thanks For The Video.
