The desktop environments that you can select at install time are pretty limited; I don't think MATE is on the list (although I could be wrong). But it's easily added after install with "yum groupinstall 'MATE Desktop'" I'm not a Gnome 3 hater, I actually like it for the most part, now that it's a lot more customizable than it was when it first came out. But I still have some use cases where it doesn't work so well. For one thing, I have not yet figured out a way to launch an application on the second monitor of a dual-head setup. Even if the launch icon is located on the second screen, it always launches on the first screen. I can then move it over manually, but this isn't really a good option when the two "monitors" are really two different inputs to the same output device, and the application is windowless full-screen. MATE has the same issue. I ended up having to use Xfce on those machines. It's nice that there are choices. --Greg -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
