MATE for Precise
PPA description
These MATE 1.8.2 packages for *only* Ubuntu Precise, they have been side ported from Debian.
In order to correctly install and configure MATE 1.8.1 on Ubuntu Precise you will also need to do the following:
Download Ubuntu 12.04 netboot .iso image. Visit the URL below and download either the i386 or amd64 mini.iso.
http://
Burn the .iso to CD or dd it to a USB stick and then install from it.
Open a terminal complete the following steps to enable the appropriate PPA and install MATE 1.8.2 on Ubuntu Precise.
sudo apt-get install python-
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Install MATE.
sudo apt-get install --no-install-
When the install is complete some post-install configuration is required.
During the mini.iso install a user account was created, which is missing a couple of files that make Network Manager work and correct the default icons for LibreOffice. Therefore these Ubuntu MATE configuration files need manually overlaying.
rsync -rvl /etc/skel/.config/ ~/.config/
rsync -rvl /etc/skel/.local/ ~/.local/
This last tweak is required to get NetworkManager fully working. Edit /etc/network/
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
Audio and Video Codecs?
If you'd like some additional audio/video codecs and Adobe Flash then install the following package.
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-
Virtualbox?
If you are doing this in a Virtualbox guest then you'll want to install these additional packages.
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-
All done!
You can now reboot into your shinny new Ubuntu MATE 12.04.
