Is there alternative, like disabling gdm service for testing (pfexec
svcadm disable gdm) and start X session just to test MATE?
Thanks.
Hi Nikola

GDM autodetects mate if its installed and lists it as Option under
Desktop Session where you should be able to select between GNOME MATE
and Xterm.

Hi,

I have installed it (went to /usr/local completely).
After log-out form running gmd, tried to log-in back, but no "GNOME MATE" was offered, just GNOME and xterm...

I could verify it with "$ ps -ef| grep usr/local" command which did not returned any running process (not from /usr/local at least).

Please advice HOW MATE can be detected by gdm?

REgards.
