Re: [Trisquel-users] Can't get Mate to work in my Trisquel (7), can anybody help?

Trisquel MATE is awesome. It looks great, but certain free software does not  
work in MATE: Wallpaper Changer Wallch cannot remember my settings. Wally  
doesn't support MATE.
I downloaded the 1000 HD Wallpapers from the Wallch site, and those are all  
RAR files. The Archive Manager that came with Trisquel can't open RAR files.  
So I installed ARK and Unrar-free, but ARK does not extract to the folder  
that I selected.
I also noticed that there's a whole lot of free software that hasn't been  
upgraded / updated in a while. One example is Conky. It's all very beautiful,  
free software, but when no longer maintained, isn't very useful any longer.
The only thing that works fine, is Cairo-Dock.
