Happy to see your OpenRC editions. Interested in getting away from systemd where possible.
.
Live CDs look great. Installed both Mate & Lxde initial releases to usb thumb drives for testing.
No usable X-windows on either one - only twm, caja, & not much else.
Installed 2nd release of Lxde - no auto start of X and no login manager. Login from command
line, ran startx, enable wifi, ran updates. All good. Installed Xfce (my preferred desktop), added
it to my .initrc, rebooted, login, and startx brings me into Xfce. Also installed Mate but so far
haven't figured out how to start it.
Anxiously awaiting the next release. Keep up the good work. I still use the 16.03 Mate systemd
release with Xfce added, but expect to switch to the OpenRC version when it matures. Thanks
for all your hard work.
Incidentally, I tried the 17.05 Mate dual iso and encountered several other problems besides the
no-desktop-icons bug, so did not try to install it. No such problems with the 16.03 release.
