MATE Companions

Based on the principle of "L'union fait la force!", this group is intended to be a forum for the sharing, asking questions, discussion, and offering solutions regarding any and all aspects associated with the MATE Desktop environment, regardless of the underlying Operationg System or distribution.

To help with the "triage" of search results, it is recommended that the most related of the following words topic-focused words be used to prefix the title of any posting:

* installation
* configuration
* customization
* panels
* appearance
* themes
* icons

* Caja
* Calculator
* ColourSelection (note, one word)
* Dictionary
* DiskUsageAnalyzer (note, one word)
* Engrampa
* FontViewer (note, one word)
* Mozo
* Pluma
* PowerStatistics (note, one word)
* Screenshot
* Search
* SystemLog (note, one word)
* SystemMonitor (note, one word)
* Terminal

The Group is also intended to accomodate what would be termed "organic evolution" of discussion topics. However, when prompted by the "Moderator", it is expected that the topic be "migrated" or "re-started" under its own heading to minimize any perceived trend toward confusion of discussion focus, primarily when the original topic has not yet been acknowledged as resolved.

To the purpose of this last point, it would be much appreciated by everyone, I am sure, if the OP (Original Poster) would post a reply in the discussion chain which clearly states one of the following quoted phrases, when it applies:

"RESOLVED COMPLETELY"

or

"RESOLVED - WORKABLE"
- hopefully accompanied, on separate lines, with outline of points where solution(s) are NOT fulfilling expectations

or

"UNRESOLVED - ABANDONED"
- it would be appreciated it the OP could offer the why for abandoning, whether it is because a different approach/solution adressed the need, or a decision to abandon the App/DM was made and, if so, sharing what alternative (if applicable) was adopted (along with the key decision factors) would be much appreciated

As everyone knows, software version is always relevant to context, so please always include both
* OS release/version
* Kernel release/version
* MATE Desktop release/version

Thank you for making the effort to comply with these guidelines, in order to make this forum as workable and useful as possible for all MATE Users, Companions all!
