Thanks for that. It clears up several issues. So the answer isn't that it won't show up on 14.04 eventually, the answer is that the key part needed, mate-session-manager, will need to be added to the repos before anyone can install mate natively in 14.04 without special repositories.
I appreciate your patient with this issue, Stefano Karapetsas. I did search launchpad, but for some reason never saw 876675. -Denny -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1320408 Title: after mate is installed, it does not show up as a login option in lightdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-desktop/+bug/1320408/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
