I found the fix to our problem. certian components of gnome didnt install properly so you use synaptic to install gnome or you can run sudo apt-get install gnome and that will give you the whole metapackage. however the draw back is that it installs alot of thing you may not usemorgan71 wrote:I have a similar problem; the applets are there, but they are invisible.

on the lighter side i have mate working perfectly, though with all the removal it look like gnome in debian stable
Except for that, I haven't had any issues, so far. It's great to have the new desktops here! Good work!
Thanks for sharing your solution. I tried it, but it didn't work. But then I re-installed gnome-icon-theme and that solved the problem!hellfire695 wrote:I found the fix to our problem. certian components of gnome didnt install properly so you use synaptic to install gnome or you can run sudo apt-get install gnome and that will give you the whole metapackage. however the draw back is that it installs alot of thing you may not use
) to my surprise it installed without a problem and was able to play around with and it seems about as responsive and error free as xfce this one may actually be a worthy gnome2 successor...(not for me thou i chose to remain on the mintified' xfce boat for as long as it's crew passes the sanity check(no lousy attempts to pull a unity/gdm3 like wheel reinvention trick)Code: Select all
