Yesterday, I wanted to upgrade one of my machines to 12.0-RC3 and ended up trashing my system. I tried several times to re-install 11.0 (upgrading to 11.2 afterward) with Mate and Slim and I couldn't get the desktop to work properly. The best I could do is to log on through Slim, even after I made a fresh installation of 11.2 directly. I get the Mate desktop but none of the utilities (such as Mate Terminal) in the menu bar work. I don't know what to do next. I'm wondering if something's not set up properly, but I don't think I missed any of the steps. One possibility is to swap the HD as it's over 10 years old. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you. B. M. Jatzeck
