[14:14] mate|8943, what do you mean by that? [14:20] I have ubuntu 16 [14:20] .04 and I want the mate version [14:20] the thing is I haven't flashed on the usb the mate version [14:20] but the regular version from ubuntu website [14:21] is there a way to move from ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS to mate version? [14:21] without burning a usb and redoing the whole installation? [14:26] mate|8943, ubuntu and ubuntu-mate are two different things [14:27] ubuntu is made my canonical whereas ubuntu-mate is based on ubuntu and is a result of other community effort [14:27] what do you need to do, is to install mate desktop environment [14:28] mate|8943, here is how you do this: https://www.tecmint.com/install-mate-desktop-in-ubuntu-fedora/ [14:30] Thank you :) [14:30] yw [14:42] diogenes_, fyi he could've typed "sudo apt install ubuntu-mate-core ubuntu-mate-desktop" and have basically an Ubuntu MATE install. [14:44] ouroumov_, sorry I'm not that familiar with ubuntu things :) [14:45] diogenes_, no problem, also just so you know, Ubuntu MATE is made by canonical too, the canonical infrastructure is the one that's producing the Ubuntu MATE disk images.
