You can install ubuntu-desktop (same goes for kubuntu-desktop)
presuming you have the disk space. Then you have the gnome libraries
needed for network-manager. If yiou have a low resource
(memory/spped)machine, it may be a little sluggish while loading all
the gnome bloat.
Just watch it the first time you login. Even if you tell it no,
ubuntu-desktop presumes you want to run gnome unless you specifically
select xfce (or kde) the first time, at least that's how it behaved on
my kubuntu installation.
