I have installed Ubuntu in a Vmware workstation 8, (the machine is not
VT capable so only 32 bit guest is possible)

the installation of 12.04 32 bit (x86) went smoothly but at the end X
server (gui ) did not came up like in normal installs one gets access
to a Unity or Gnome desktop I do not have that.What should I check I
tried

startx :1
but I get following error http://paste.ubuntu.com/1549913

where as previously I have used 11.10 or 10.04 inside vmware with a
full fledged desktop with all gui and I did not needed to do any
startx etc
in case of 12.04 GUI it is not coming though I get a login shell by
which on command line I can do all work by an ssh to this virtual
machine
but not a gui.What should I check?
