Mint menu works fine thank you! About the close button problem, I took a screenshot: [img]http://i43.tinypic.com/2gv0w8x.jpg[/img] The window closes only when the pointer clicks at X or at the right of X, but only under the black line I've put at the screenshot. At MATE 1.4 I could put the pointer a...

Thank you. I 've installed it without any problems. I have 2 questions: - I noticed with MATE 1.6 that the "close" button in the upper-right corner no longer registers on maximized windows when you click in the very upper-right corner! You must precisely aim the mouse cursor directly over ...

Thank you for your answer. I added the repository, I edited the /etc/apt/preferences file as it is described at the instructions and I tried to install MATE 1.6 updates, but a warning appeared. (W: GPG error: http://packages.mate-desktop.org precise Release: The following signatures could not be ver...

I am waiting for the backports, too, in order to use MATE 1.6 on Mint 13 Mate 32 bit. Approximately when are these backports going to be available ?

TheDynamicHamza21 thank you very much. It worked fine. This is the solution Thank you all for your help

I use Mint 13 maya with MATE 1.4 (backported recently). Everything runs well, but I want to disable that minimizing effect that appears when we are minimizing a window (that effect with the frame line of the window that shrinks down at the open window in taskbar). Is there a way ? I haven't done any...

Thank you for your answers. I'll think of updating to 1.4,.It seems that there are no problems.

I am thinking of updating to MATE 1.4 at my laptop (mint maya mate installed), but I have two questions: - Will MATE 1.2 be updated automatically to 1.4 in the future ? (In order to avoid manually installation of MATE 1.4). If I choose to update to 1.4, will I experience problems with constant updat...

Mozilla has not implemented this feature yet on linux. I don't know the reasons. Maybe the differences between the desktop enviroments are the reason (i.e. at unity that feature is not necessary but at MATE is absolutely necessary for many users because it fits with that envoronment and increases pr...

I tried that solution but tearing doesn't stop

But honestly, I've never been able to get "tear-free" Linux. Ever. Even on my desktop, I still get tearing. It's ridiculous that most compositors don't let you just manually enter a refresh rate. My netbook never had tearing problems with Mint 9. But I wanted something lighter and newer, ...

Hello,

I've installed mint 13 xfce at my netbook It's vga is Intel Corporation Mobile 945GSE Express Integrated Graphics Controller. Everything runs fine except a tearing problem when watching youtube videos or videos with VLC. Is there something that I can do in order to stop tearing ?

Thank you for your help, the icon appeared.

I found two volume control entries at startup applications, they were both enabled.

Firstly thank you for your help That is exactly what I want to do, as you described with the screenshots. I removed "notification area" and then I added it again, but the notification area doesn't have the volume icon.

Is there a way to reset MATE taskbar at it's default configuration with the default icons-shortcuts etc ? I only want to reset something. When I was trying to fix a sound problem with pulse audio, the Volume icon near the clock at the right-down edge had gone. I inserted a volume icon (right-Click o...

No it didn't came back. But, I did a change, from gstreamer-properties I selected PulseAudio server and I am waiting to see if it works well

Why did you decide that pulseaudio is not used? Because when I uninstalled pulseaudio the volume adjust icon near the clock at the right part of the taskbar dissapeared and after the re-installation it has not apeared. I added a volume icon by right-clicking and adding items to taskbar. It is not t...

I had a similar problem. I did something that maybe is wrong; From the Software Center, I uninstalled PulseAudio. Then, I rebooted and it uses the Alsa mixer. These sound problems seems that have gone. But I want to use again pulse audio, in order to use the solution mentioned here; https://wiki.arc...

Thanks, I will try to find a suitable ppa for each one of these applications.
