Hello,
The icons have gone away off the mate desktop.
Its ok on Plasma/Kde.
Also the right button on the mouse is doing nothing.
The right button on the mouse is ok when on a window.

Cheers .

If you can start dconf-editor
org -> mate -> desktop then tick the show-desktop-icon

Also check settings under
org -> mate -> caja -> desktop

I don't seem to have any luck

Code: Select all

[nigel@localhost ~]$ dconf-editor

(dconf-editor:676779): Gtk-WARNING **: 18:58:46.362: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:2:33: Failed to import: Error opening file /home/nigel/.config/gtk-3.0/window_decorations.css: No such file or directory

Both messages are irrelevant. For the Gtk-Warning see https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28299#c1 and the dconf-editor warning seems also normal.

Does dconf-editor open or not? Check in MCC that task-mate and task-mate-minimal are installed.
