I have installed MATE on Trisquel 5.5 and I love it. Very thankful to have this simple, well-tried GUI back.
For anyone curious about what it's like ... if you remember Ubuntu 10.10 and older versions, it had the menu bar in the upper-left with "Applications, Places, System" menu options. That's what MATE is. It's the Ubuntu 10.10 and older UI (which I had used since Ubuntu 7.04 when I first switched from Windows to Linux). Best regards, Rick C.
