Para tener KDE en el sistema se debe instalar el paquete kubuntu-desktop. Para Gnome, el paquete se llama ubuntu-desktop, y en el caso de XFCE se trata de xubuntu-desktop. Estos paquetes son especiales, ya que todos dependen de ellos y le vienen muy bien al sistema de actualizaciones. Están disponibles en los repositorios, por ejemplo para instalar KDE se puede ejecutar:
dijo:sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
Durante la instalación nos preguntará qué gestor de sesiones queremos que esté funcionando por defecto, si KDM (el del escritorio KDE) o GDM (el de Gnome).
Para instalar el XFCE se ejecuta:
dijo:sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
Durante la instalación nos preguntará qué gestor de sesiones queremos que esté funcionando por defecto, si KDM (el del escritorio KDE), GDM (el de Gnome) o el XFCE.
Si por alguna razon no te gusta que la pantalla de login sea la de KDE sino la de GNOME, siendo mas especifico lo que ustedes quieres no es tener kdm sino gdm. Eso se soluciona muy facil escribiendo el siguiente comando en la consola:
dijo:sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
Si no te gusta y quieres desintalar todo y dejar tu sistema como estaba escribe el siguiente codigo:
Este codigo es para desinstalar el kubuntu (KDE);

Ahora otro gran problema es que si tenemos el escritorio Gnome y el KDE las aplicaciones se nos amontonaran, asi que una forma sencilla seria instalando este paquete desde el escritorio Gnome:
y al instalarlo quedara algo mas o menos como esto:
Espero y les sirva
