Research direction
Start by reproducing the Ubuntu Desktop installation in the documented VirtualBox setup using the listed apt-get and startx commands. Check whether the launcher remains available after restarting and whether the VM can start the GUI automatically; document the confirmed setup requirements and user-facing resolution.

Description
Hi,
I followed up Openflow-tutorial and installed Ubuntu-desktop with using this prompts:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install xinit ubuntu-desktop virtualbox-guest-dkms
(restart vm - I am using virtualbox)
$ startx
But only what I got, was empty background. So I found on ubuntusk.com this prompt:
rm ~/.gconf ~/.gconfd ~/.metacity ~/.compiz-1 ~/.config/compiz-1 ~/.config/dconf -rf
After that my launcher showed. But after restart VM it was hidden again.
So I would ask how I can fix this?
And is it possible set this VM for running GUI after start or restart VM? Now I start VM and see terminal and after typing credentials (mininet/mininet) I have to type startx for GUI.
I'm not exactly Linux-person but I try learning SDN technology for my diploma.
Thank you for your help!
