Yeah, just of the older GNOME2 for those of us that like the old interface
Well, it installed mostly ok - other than a error about the panels being misconfigured. I installed mate-tweak so I could reset the panel layout, also disable animations and showing window content when draggin, as the DE seems a lot slower than it used to be when I used mate on the rock64 last. Drive automounting is working as it should, the network manage applet (nm-applet) is missing so needs to be installed `sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome` and I just ran it from the terminal `nm-applet &` but it should have run automatically on reboot. Doesn't seem to be working properly though. It's looking like MATE hasn't been given any attention after the change to bionic, and a few things, including openGL stuff isn't working as well as it did.
