    yes thats what said in that link .

    so as you asked , if you want to install gnome-shell

    open your terminal and type as 

    sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

    I like KDE , to get it you can do 

    sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

    IF you want some light desktops 

    sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
