Thanks for your quick response! I'll try building from the sourceswhile I'm stuck with C7 :-).
Regards,
I have an interest in the latest version of Mate for CentOS 7 as
well. Versions newer than 1.20 don't build on 7. Or, rather, they build butdon't result in a stable system. A newer gcc might work, but I've never tried that as I also moved on to8. Rocky, that is. _______________________________________________CentOS mailing listCentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
I believe there is a Developer Toolset-9 available for C7. Do you remember what you used?_______________________________________________CentOS mailing listCentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
On another note, the version that is available for C7, Mate 1.16.2, does not save all sessions when it crashes, nor does it save positions or session order arrangement on the bar. This means that every time the computer is restarted you have to spend time arranging your desktop working environment... I have not found any utility to do this for me either. Quite annoying, particularly since I remember that even OS/2 saved the desktop perfectly upon shutdown. Does Mate 1.20 do better in this regards?
Hi, I have been using it for about a week and I have not found any problems, but only one: when I use 3 monitor /a notebook, and two lcd/, sometimes the display was frozen. I think, it is better, then 1.16, but I didn’t find a huge difference in use, maybe it more responsive, and look likes better ☺

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!
