Gnome desktop environment on Proxmox

[gminadak]

Hello.
On my proxmox server I want to have a graphical desktop as well with GNOME so I can install Parsec on it.
I have successfully installed the gnome desktop by running

apt-get install task-gnome-desktop

To my surprise I wasn't even able to open a web page so I had to manually edit the /etc/resolv.conf and looks like this now

# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 9.9.9.9
nameserver 1.1.1.1

(worth to mention here that I have an "AdGuard Home" on a Linux container (CT) that's used by my devices as adblock, dns and DHCP server.)

I don't have change anything else regarding network configuration from the default proxmox installation.

After editing the /etc/resolv.conf I'm able to open web sites and the Proxmox web interface.
The problem is that when I'm opening the "Software" from Gnome desktop and clicking on updates it says "No Connection" and when I'm trying to install anything it just does nothing also I can't see any network adapter listed on the "Network settings"
I was able to install flatpak and gnome software plugin for flatpak from terminal though.

any help would be appreciated

The Network manager of some (or most?) desktop environments does not play nice with Proxmox, according to Proxmox staff in this thread.

You helped a lot, I just had to completely remove the network manager and configure /etc/network/interfaces
by just adding there the dns server
