hello i have just installed opensuse tumbleweed with the gnome desktop,is there a way of changing to the mate desktop please?
thank you.
Yast → Software Management
Select the “Patterns” view.
Check the MATE patterns (MATE base system and MATE Desktop Environment). I think just checking the second of those is enough, as that should pull in the other.
Click “Accept” in bottom right corner.
Then logout. When you login again, click the gear wheel and select MATE as your desktop. It should remember after that.
You will still have Gnome installed. Just leave it there.
