- In this video I will show you how to install free tier Ubuntu server 22.04 in Oracle Cloud with LXQt desktop environment, how to install xrdp and configure iptables and Oracle Cloud Virtual Cloud Network security list to allow RDP connection on port 3389 to the server from the internet. I will also show you how to disable LXQt desktop compositor for better performance and responsiveness. And how to start a remote desktop session with Microsoft Remote Desktop and connect to the LXQt desktop.

I tested many tutorial for installing desktop GUI on Oracle cloud instances, and non of them worked for me, but this tutorial worked like charm! I was very straight and useful.
Thank you so much!
I’m glad it was helpful.
Just installed with your line by instruction, Very straight forward and Worked like a charm, Thanks again (For some reason, I couldnt able to ssh from Terminal after update and rebooting, needed to open the ssh again after rebooting with 'sudo ufw allow ssh' in the run command section of oracle 'Run Command' option)
The only thing that I can think of causing this behaviors is if you accidentally replaced the line for port 22 with 3389 instead of adding an extra line for 3389 in the /etc/iptables/rules.v4. It is around 10:10 in the video. Maybe check out the file and make sure you have both ports open, if you end up making changes to the file don't forget to reload the rules with "iptables-restore < /etc/iptables/rules.v4" or reboot. Let me know if that solved it.
Thank you!!!! It workssss :)))))
I absolutely appreciate.
I’m glad it worked!
Very useful video, Thanks Brother👍

Top. It works fine!
Great!
Amazing! Thank you so much! :D
Thanks!
@@TechTute I have one question. How do I install an application on LXQt? Whenever I double click on a DEB file it just opens it as an archive.
@@MicoPopenay the easiest way to do it is via the cli. All you have to do is open terminal cd to the directory where your application package is and run "dpkg -i package.deb" replace package.deb with whatever you are trying to install. If you get an error for missing dependencies run "apt-get install -f" and that should take care of everything. To do it in the GUI you will need to use graphical package manager, I think lxqt comes with Discover. You can open discover and look for install new application button or something of that sort there point it to your package and if should install it for you. Let me know if you cant figure it out, I can ry to give you more detailed instructions.
Thank you so much!!! It works. I failed multiple times. And I realized that it doesn't allow me to log in if I set an easy password.
Glad it helped!
Thanks. It worked for me after so many trials. My problem was choosing an acceptable password for the root user. Now I got it and it worked for me.
Thanks.
You are welcome
Awesome vid, All I can say God Bless you for your such a great knowledge sharing and if you are atheism then have a life full of positive energy :)
Thank you for the kind words!
Can you do the same for ubuntu-desktop? there is no up to date guidance on how to install it. I really love the video, first one that worked for me and I've watched a dozen! Thanks a lot for you activity!
All you should have to do is run "apt install ubuntu-desktop" to install the the ubuntu desktop instead of LXQt and once it is installed in the "~/.xsession" file replace "startlxqt" with "gnome-session". Let me know ho wit goes.
Could you please do a tutorial on how to install wine (or any other emulator program) and successfully run windows program on Ubuntu?
Thanks.
I will look in to it when I get a chance. Thanks!
same process would work on aws i assume? what's (the min CPU) needed to make it much snappier?
Yes, all should be the same. Except you shouldn't have to open port 3389 in iptables. Only open 3389 in your Security Group. For making it snappier, I would say experiment. I tried with t3.medium, large and xlarge and to be hones I couldn't tell much of a difference in all 3 of them you could tell it is remote desktop session. Please post back what if you find the perfect instance type.
thanks for the video, compare with destop ubuntu , which one is smoth to run on free tier oracle instance?
Based on my experience I would definitely recommend LXQt, it is lighter and faster. Ubuntu Desktop is feature-rich but can be heavier. You can always do both and see how each feels.
@@TechTute thanks for replying, can you guide me how to delete the old ubuntu destop so i can start over with LXQt, really appreciated
@@anhdzung.truong how did you install the Ubuntu desktops?
hi, i just finished install it on and log into it, but i cant use my keyboard to type anything. is there anything i need to do to use keyboard? only the mouse work
@@TechTute i run these command: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get autoremove
Hi Great video, I am new in linux, just need to ask you, how we can install Bottels in this LXQt Desktop environment?
I have never heard of Bottels before. I have tried to use wine and I coludn't get it to work so I am not sore if Bottles will. I will take a look at it when I get a chance in the upcoming weeks and will get back to you.
Hi i have tried to install wine on 22.04 ubuntu and its working fine for now
@@vishalmewada17 oh really, on the same setup on oracle cloud with arm processor?
@@TechTute No, ARM processor are not supporting Wine and Bottles, so i have use Intel Processor
Yeah that't what I thought. Thanks!
when you install , you get the option for gdm3 configuring , i am guessing you select sddm not gdm3
There is almost no difference, I usually select sddm, as it is the default for LXQt.
hello I would like you to teach how to install the cinnamon environment in ubuntu in oracle cloud
Great suggestion! Will look in to it.
could you perhaps add the commands you entered
apt update
apt upgrade
apt install lxqt sddm xrdp
systemctl start xrdp
nano /etc/iptables/rules.v4 #In the file add rule to open port 3389 save and close
iptables-restore < /etc/iptables/rules.v4
nano ~/.xsession #in the file add "startlxqt" save and close
would it be possible to run windows as the desktop gui?
Yes but not with the always free tier.
Hi, I tried this and don't have any networking default settings. Which settings should I choose?
Click on edit and then you can select vcn (Virtual Cloud Network) from the drop down if you don't have any you will have to create new one. Once you have selected VCN select subnet again you will need to create new one if there are no existing, finally make sure you select Assign Public IP.
@@TechTute Thanks! I did this and everything works.
@@amzacc Awesome!
l wanted to ask if you can install Vscode there
Yes, you can install vscode. I personally prefer to run vscode locally and use remote-ssh to work on the server.
I have reinstalled the server to use AMD because most of the .deb software won't work on Arm64.
you are correct there are plenty of packaged that would not work on arm
TechTutelage - Thank you GOD💌
You’re welcome!
hello exelent. is posible send audio??
I don't think so
can I install wordpress on this server?
Yes. Wordpress Server on Cloud. Always Free Oracle Cloud. Free SSL From Lets Encrypt.

How long can I use?
According to Oracle it is free forever. I have been using their free tier fro over 2 yrs now and everything is still working as promised.
Please how can I install mt4 On it for Forex Trading
I am not sure if that would work on ARM. It looks like. MT4 needs Wine32 to run on linux which is currently not available on ARM. Did you try it with AMD Instance?
Broo i dont understand ssh, they just doesnt work for me
What exactly isn't working?
@@TechTute when i open putty it just shows errors in command console when i try to do some commands
@@lauris4887 would you mind sharing the errors you see in putty?
@@TechTute when ill try again i will share it
Out of capacity for weeks now
Did you try changing availability domain?
@@TechTute yes today after I wrote the 1st comment it worked I'm happy thank you so much 😊
@@mirceamarghitas1046 awesome!
My dynamic IP changed and I am unable to change my ingress rule. I get invalid CIDR when attempting to update the IP to access with RDP. Any advice?
It is hard to tell without seeing what you are entering in the ingress rule. If you are entering a single ip make sure you are using /32.
@@TechTute I'm getting a /22 from my ISP. I released and was assigned another with /22. I will contact them today. Thanks for the reply! Great tutorial, works wonderfully.
@@eljefe62 /22 is entire subnet, I am not sure where you got it from. Do this open you browser and go to ifconfig.io/ Get the IP from the IP Address line and enter it in your ingress rule with /32. That should do it for you.
