[Michael Serowik]

Sorry, I am not following this.

I have Ubuntu server basic install no other options loaded.

Should  I switch to the workstation version?

Are you running an X server (i.e. a desktop display using the X window

I though that the "server" installs of Ubuntu didn't ship with X by default,
since those installs are not intended primarily for desktop use, but for
headless machines.
