MATE 1.18 Desktop
Welcome to the MATE/OpenIndiana effort
MATE is really a fork associated with GNOME desktop environment.
This is actually the wiki for making use of, building and installing MATEВ® software on the OpenIndianaВ® os. You will find paperwork for applications that behave differently on OpenIndiana than on LinuxВ®. The compilation and installation directions are specialized for OpenIndiana administrators.
The MATEВ® community is an worldwide technology group focused on making a free and user-friendly computing experience, offering a sophisticated graphical desktop, a wide variety of applications for interaction, work, training and entertainment and frameworks for building new applications.
OpenIndianaВ® is definitely an advanced os for contemporary server and desktops. OpenIndiana’s rule base has withst d over ten years of constant development, enhancement, and optimization. It really is produced from illumos kernel environment, the form of UNIXВ® originally developed at Sun Microsystems (now Oracle) and maintained by the organization that is illumos.
The MATE/OpenIndiana team hopes this web site would have been a resource that is valuable all who have an interest in keeping the advanced level of compatibility between OpenIndiana and MATE Software Compilation that has been seen up to now. The aim is to facilitate the conversation of spots, finding pests, suggesting features and hopefully becoming a valuable member of both the MATE and OpenIndiana communities.
