Thanks for a quick answer Mattia,

As far as I remember, I had to move from mate to gnome to have
it reasonably starting. But I feel so bad under gnome.

Those who are using Windows or even a Mac OS are used to having only ONE "windows manager". In other words, what you are used to thinking of as the operating system is really the sole windows manager that comes bundled with your operating system. You are not directly interacting with the operating system itself. IF you work at the command line you are working closer to the operating system, but even then there is a "shell language" involved.

It is different for the 'nix users because they usually have a wide choice of windows managers available to them and they tend to be passionate about their favorite windows manager. For you to get a sense of that, the appearance, etc. of these different windows managers can be much farther apart than say Windows vs Mac OS.

So what Anne is saying here is that she can get it working under the windows manager "gnome" but not under "mate" and she doesn't like :gnome". This is typical of linux users, to have such a very strong preference for one over another.
