   The user was saying, and is kind-of correct, that
   add-on environments don't always fully/properly
   install and may require a lot of fucking around.
   If selected DURING initial install the results
   are better.

   IF you don't have a lot of time vested in the VM
   then it CAN be easier/faster to just zap it and
   create a new one.

   As for Gnome - DOES suck green donkey dicks - and
   KDE ... hate 'em both. XFCE or LXDE for me ! JUST
   enough, no bullshit or excess eye-candy.
