I've mostly been using MATE from epel when I use GUI access on CentOS7 because it works with x2go, but just noticed on a system with Gnome3 that I can't drag items out of the menus to the desktop or top bar for easier access. Is there some way to make the desktop space useful for more than pretty wallpaper? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

With C6 Gnome and C7 Mate you can right-click on a file icon, select Properties, select Notes, and write notes about your file. Does anyone know if those notes can be directly transferred between C6 Gnome and C7 Mate? I'm looking into upgrading someone's desktop machine to C7 and she has a lot of notes attached to her files that she doesn't want to lose. After doing a bit of

I am having this problem on Ubuntu 18.04 -- I manage a batch of desktop machines with some convience desktop launchers, which gnome3 insists are "untrusted". With some general websearching reveals that this is a *GNome3* so-called "security" issue (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/commit/1630f5348). I found a thread on the CentOS Forums (I don't have an account

My wife bought a new Thinkpad, on which we had the shop install CentOS 7 (I *think* it's 7.3.) Alas!, I didn't think to specify NOT Gnome, in thunder. So of course I got it. I've tried several times to force myself to accommodate Gnome3, always with no joy. How do I get Mate or Xfce instead? Related problem: when I become root and tell it "yum update," it figures out

I need some C8 troubleshooting help with MATE. I'm building a ZFS storage server with a SuperMicro H11SSL motherboard, EPYC 7232 CPU, and 32 GB ECC SDRAM. I installed CentOS 8.1.1911 from the iso as soon as it was released. I'm using the on-board ASPEED VGA video. I installed MATE v1.22 from https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/stenstorp/MATE/. The following packages are installed:

Hello All, this problem occured both before the release with CR repo and now after the release. I have 150 laptops running Centos7 / MATe, including my own laptop. We have these repo's enabled: repo id repo naam status base/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Base 9.591 beid-release/7 Belgian eID package archive 68 epel/x86_64 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 - x86_64 11.904 extras/7/x86_64

Without wanting to sound too pushy, I'm wondering if there is any update on the status of Mate now that Centos 8 has been released? I would love to jump on C8 and start playing with it, but the lack of Mate is kind of a showstopper for me at the moment. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

Let me start by saying I'm also not a fan of Gnome3, and prefer MATE. However, I believe the new interface provided by Gnome3
