MATE 桌面环境 是 GNOME 2 的一个分支,旨在使用传统的方式，为Linux用户提供一个有吸引力的和直观的桌面. 更多信息, 请看 this forum thread.

## 获得

MATE 现在位于 GitHub:

- 基于发布版本编号的的稳定版：http://repo.mate-desktop.org/archlinux/.

## 安装

要通过 pacman 安装稳定版本的 MATE ， 添加下面几行到 `/etc/pacman.conf`:

    [mate]
    Server = http://packages.mate-desktop.org/repo/archlinux/$arch

运行

    # pacman -Syy

然后

    # pacman -S mate

一些人可能对从mate-extra 组 (大部分是 gnome-extra 组里的包的副本)安装某些包感兴趣:

Note: 目前, MATE 的pacman 仓库里有两个扩展组: mate-extra 和 mate-extras. It is advised to look in both for the needed applications until it gets properly merged/fixed into a single extra group.

    # pacman -S mate-extra

或者

    # pacman -S mate-extras

You are very likely to get file conflicts when installing. Simply rename the offending files or install with the `--force` flag. You will also require dbus.

Note: Currently, many MATE packages do not provide, conflict or replace any GNOME packages.

### GTK+ 3 版本

An experimental GTK+ 3 build of MATE can be installed with mate-gtk3 and mate-extra-gtk3 groups. While it works mostly, there are few known issues with caja, eom, marco, mate-control-center, mate-netbook, mate-notification-daemon, mate-panel and pluma.

### MATE 不稳定版本

Consider the following community efforts, cf. forum:

- mate-desktop-devAUR (https://github.com/nicman23/arch_mate)

## 启动

### 图形方式

在 显示管理器 中选择 MATE 即可，推荐的显示管理器是 LightDM 加 lightdm-gtk2-greeterAUR[broken link: replaced by lightdm-gtk-greeter] 提供的 GTK+ (2) greeter。

### 手动

为了手动启动 MATE , 需要添加

    exec mate-session

到你的 `~/.xinitrc` 文件,然后运行

    $ startx

注意: xinitrc有详细介绍，例如保持 logind 会话等。

## 应用程序

### 核心应用程序

It is important to note that many GNOME core applications are rebranded for MATE, as per the licensing terms. Here is a simple Rosetta Stone of GNOME -> MATE applications.

- Nautilus 重命名为 caja
- Metacity 重命名为 marco
- Gconf 重命名为 mate-conf

Other applications and core components prefixed with GNOME (such as GNOME Panel, GNOME Menus etc) have simply had the prefix renamed "MATE" and become MATE Panel and MATE Menus.

### 扩展应用程序

Not all of the GNOME extra applications (built for GTK2) have been forked yet. 下面的扩展应用程序在 MATE 中可用:

- Totem (mate-video-player)
- Eye of GNOME (mate-image-viewer)
- Gedit (mate-text-editor)
- File Roller (mate-file-archiver)
- GNOME Panel applets (mate-applets)
- GNOME Terminal (mate-terminal)

如果你使用 NetworkManager 连接互联网, 可以为 GTK2 nm-applet 从 AUR 安装 network-manager-applet-gtk2AUR. You will need to modify the PKGBUILD to depend on mate-bluetooth rather than gnome-bluetooth to prevent a recursive dependency on gnome-desktop.

## Using Compiz Fusion sans Emerald

If you would like to use Marco with Compiz Fusion, install and start Compiz Fusion as you would normally and install the package gtk-window-decorator and run the following command to create a symlink:

    # ln -s /usr/lib/libmarco-private.so.0 /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0

Enable the Window Decoration plugin in the Compiz Fusion settings manager and use

    gtk-window-decorator --replace

as the command. However, without recompiling gtk-window-decorator, the necessary mateconf keys will not be created and you will be stuck with Cairo based decorations. It may be possible to create these keys yourself.

## 已知问题

### Qt 应用程序不风格化

You may find that Qt4 applications are not inheriting the GTK2 theme like they should. This can be fixed easily by installing libgnomeui with the `--force` flag. If the problem persists, run qtconfig and setting GTK+ as GUI style under System ⇒ Preferences ⇒ QT4 Settings.
