Couple of questions: - Which exact version of Mate are you running? - Do you have a HiDPI display? That is one of the reasons I am interested in a version later than 1.16 which has lots of issues on such a laptop display? - You say it is better (apart from freezing your display which is not good), how so? - Did you download Mate 1.20? If so, from where? - Or, did you compile it yourself? Thanks! _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
