Maybe you have little knowledge about linux thinking that the whole system is limited to windows and buttons;) Learn to know the core linux core that may not claim as much;)

Pato, it is now. And, you’re welcome.

There was a bug, Mate developers chose to ignore it, then after some pressure, they chose to fix it. However, it is up to them to spread that info around, because, since I no longer use the DE, I can’t keep track of it.

than emailing HQs!

Linux Mint has such a forum, which I have duly signed
up for.

GL, Mate. :<)

Mate, for reasons of their own, finally decided to get back to me with actual information, and included on that was information on a bug fix they implemented. I’ll be updating this post on what Nate users can do to help make it work for them.

Meanwhile, I’ve got Xfce on he desktop and it is working great. I’ll be posting about that eventually.

John, I’ve not knowingly installed a driver on a Linux machine in ten years, other than for the printer, and that has worked very nicely in all cases except the OS that comes with a Pi.

MH, I am doing just that. Unless, the download was bad, which I
had not the ability to verify, I have had numerous issues as well.

Drivers missing, downloads not working and can not open desktop
after going into suspend!! It keeps claiming that there is a network
issue.

Internet support for alternative OS Mint and all others is very thin.

I see that once again the updater has an “X” on it, stating “could not
refresh the list of updates” which I have tried to do at least a dozen times.

I am afraid, that unless green horns have some type of support in
dealing with these issues, Ubuntu, shall remain a minority in use.

Such a feeling that this system is made for the program programmers … I just had 2 weeks before I was crazy. No, I did not cut my screen, I just changed the operating system back to Windows. This is how my acquaintance with this operating system ended.

I did try Cinnamon way back when, and I liked it, but I liked Mate a little better.
