Some more info can be found here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerGUI. I assume you start with a clean install of Ubuntu Server 16.04 (some modifications may be needed for older versions of Ubuntu). Depending on your needs you can do these:

Minimal GUI:

sudo apt install xorg
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends openbox
Run the command startx and openbox will start (you can open a terminal there and run any application you want)

Recommended Paper Anti-Xray settings by stonar96

General

Anti-Xray can be configured per world in the paper.yml configuration file. To understand how per world configuration works please read this first. Note that after changing any settings for Anti-Xray you have to restart your server. Executing the /reload command (you should never do this) won't apply the settings to worlds that are already loaded.
