Jessie Lite does not include a Desktop Environment, it is Command Line only..

so which raspbian i should use
suggest me a link

You can probably get a basic desktop running on Raspbian Lite by installing raspberrypi-ui-mods.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install raspberrypi-ui-mods

This will install the software needed for the desktop without installing all the extras that the standard Raspbian image includes.

You'll probably need to reboot after installing that and configure the Pi to boot to desktop, and you may need to install additional software depending on what you require.
