Hi Guix,
I installed Trisquel with MATE Desktop in a qemu/virtual machine.
I checked if in Caja, the file manager in MATE, it is possible to change
the background.
In the Menu bar it is the second option: "edit"
Then choose "backgrounds/emblems" (almost on the bottom of the
possibilities)
Hi Roman,
Thank you very much for your issue tracker report.

Could you report it on a Guix issue tracker

Hi Roman,
I do not think that it refers to the style of writing named "Sans".
Instead, it must be referring to the font,
Yes of course, I meant "font"
I expressed myself incorrectly, sorry.
It seems that "Sans" is a
default font in MATE.
I don´t know. I also don´t know how to find that o

Hi,
thanks for helping me.
As Luis wrote I also don´t have a separate list of "Greek alphabet" in
the left panel.
But if I write: "greek" in the search panel
then the greek alphabet comes up.
The second method, as you described, put e.g.0370 in my search

Is this under X or Wayland? Please see if the eyes in 'xeyes' follow

You are right. For better or for worse, Guix is a speciality distribution.

Hi,
Have you tried switching into regular X.org (or into Wayland) using
the little sessions sprocket in the GDM login screen?
There is no possibility to do that.
I have got 2 options:
login to MATE or login to ENLIGHTENMENT Desktop.
that’s all.

may wish to wait for more responses before making such a drastic

There are surely others besides you. (For example, I think the Linux
creator may use it, although not on Guix.) It would make sense to wait
for more responses before you take any drastic act
Have you tried clearing gdm's cache? I think something like rm -rf ~/.cache/gdm
might solve the issue. I'm not sure for your other questions.

Hi,
I did a rollback on my guix system four times,
but MATE was not recovered.
it seems it is a gdm problem.

Am I the only one who has MATE-Desktop?

Is there a way to repair gdm
or should I wait for a next update?
