Installing a GUI on JuNest #285

Hello- I've been using JuNest for a while now and wanted to see if installing a desktop environment such as KDE or XFCE through JuNest is possible? I'm currently running on a Manjaro KDE install with everything up to date.

Thanks

I tried long time ago (with the proot mode) using awesome wm and was working. I would try with ns mode first. I imagine it may not be easy to get everything right. Obviously you'd need to install xorg package together we the DE of your choice. Good luck!

I dont really know much about all these different modes. But without changing anything on junest I managed to get I3 working. I still have issues with some hotkeys but this probably isnt directly an Issue with junest.
