Hello
a update finally got mate installed
I honestly have no idea why it all of a sudden started working but it
appears to be installed and running ok.
am running it off of my usb external hard drive
the only thing that I can think of that was causing stuff to go wrong
was when trying it I noticed that there was a partition called reserved
it was a ntfs format I killed that and redid the installer and it
worked.On 8/19/2015 1:50 AM, Tony Baechler wrote:
As mentioned, yes, you can run console apps as root with Orca and they
speak fine. Try this:
1. Press Alt-F2.
2. Type "sudo -i"
3. Press Tab twice to get to a checkbox to run in terminal. Check the
box.
4. Press Enter.
If that doesn't work, something else is going on, but I've used that
several times and it works fine here. After you install MATE to your
hard drive, you'll have to enter your user password before you get an
interactive shell.
Why are you running gparted? The installer will resize and adjust
your partitions. You shouldn't need to do that manually unless you
want to. In my case, I had an old Debian installation on /dev/sda2
which it happily overwrote once I told it to do so. I didn't have to
do anything by hand.

the main problem I am having on the mate distros is that
administrative apps running as root is not working
this happens on a live distro invirement
I tried control t
as well to go to terminal with same results.
