Install GNOME Desktop Ubuntu 15.04
Solution 1:
Log out and open a terminal on TTY1 Ctrl+Alt+F1 and run the following commands:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop
sudo service gdm restart
As @Exocom said, the following step is not necessary.
sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
Then choose the desktop you want and you can log in again.
Solution 2:
Open a terminal and execute:
sudo apt-get install gnome
Choose "gdm" when asked.
In case not being asked execute :
sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
To restart the system execute :
sudo reboot
Rebooting after installing a new DE is not necessary, however some say it is recommended.
