mate

Post by djemos »

Mate exists on Slackel repos over 6 months, maybe more. I had compiled all needed packages of mate 1.22 edition for x86 and x86_64.
I had created a 64 bit live iso and tested and solved any issues and became a ready to install iso.
But I did not find the time to create a 32 bit live iso. So i never make it public.

If anyone likes mate and wants to have it along with openbox can run these simple commands to first see what packages will be installed.

Code: Select all

sudo slapt-get -u
sudo slapt-get --install-set mate -s
Then proceed to installation.

Code: Select all

sudo slapt-get --install-set mate
There are also other two packages
zzz-settings-mate
user-settings-mate
but they suppose to be installed in an only mate installation e.g. used for the live iso

From gdm login screen choose mate.
