MATE Calculator
MATE Calculator started out as a gnome-calc fork, a calculation system 
located in the OpenWindows Deskset of the Solaris 8 operating system.
MATE System Monitor
The mate-system-monitor allows you to monitor and control processes 
that run on your system. You can access detailed memory maps, send sig-
nals, and cut processes.
In addition, the mate-system-monitor provides a complete overview of 
application usage on your system, including memory and CPU allocation, 
as well as network usage. It also allows you to view file system information 
such as Device, Type, Mountpoints, and Disk usage. The System tab will 
display basic information about your system such as hostname, Kernel, 
MATE version, installed memory, and processing information.
MATE Terminal
You can use a deadly simulation app to access the UNIX shell instead of 
MATE. You can use any application designed to work on VT102, VT220, 
and xterm terminals with it. MATE Terminal also has the ability to use 
multiple terminals in a single window (tabs) and supports different con-
figuration management (profiles). MATE Terminal is a fork of GNOME 
Terminal.
ADDITIONAL MATE PACKAGES
Several other illegal MATE applications are provided and maintained by 
the MATE community, so they are not included in the partner or partner 
group.
• Dock Applet
• Applet Online Radio
• MATE Menu
• MATE Desktop
• Brisk Menu

Linux 
The first package of MATE is given below.
Dock Applet
The MATE Dock Applet is a MATE panel applet that displays open win-
dows/applications as icons. The latest version of 0.78 includes five new 
indicators, a new option to add space between dock icons, and more.
Among the MATE Dock, Applet features are pinning apps in the dock, 
showing apps usage indicators, supporting updating apps using keyboard 
shortcuts, and more. The applet can even change the color of the MATE 
panels to prominent desktop background.
Changes to the MATE Dock Applet 0.78 include:
• Five new app indicators: circle, square, triangle, diamond, and sub-
way. With the GTK3 version of the applet (Ubuntu 16.10 and later), 
the cursor color will be the current theme’s highlight color. As that 
does not happen in GTK2, you can use the color back option to set 
this up (see the MATE Dock Applet preferences, on the Misc tab).
• Now, you can set the space between the dock icons. 0-7 Supported 
Values (Dock Preferences
> Panel Options> Application Space).
• In windows that need attention, you can now adjust if the badge 
(exclamation mark) should be displayed at the top of the icon instead 
of the flashing icon (Dock Favorites
> Mixed> Action when apps 
need attention).
Installation of Dock Applet
The MATE Dock Applet is available in Ubuntu storage (MATE), but it is 
not the latest version. You can see the version available for each Ubuntu 
release HERE. To install the version from the official Ubuntu MATE 
archives, use the following command:
$ sudo apt to install mate-dock-applet
Ubuntu MATE 17.04, 16.10, 16.04, or 14.04 users can install the latest 
MATE Dock Applet using WebUpd8 MATE PPA. Add PPA and install the 
applet using the following instructions:
Sudo add-apt-repository ppa: webupd8team / mate
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt to install mate-dock-applet


MATE Desktop Environment 

143
Once installed, right-click the MATE panel, select “Add to the panel,” 
and add the “Dock” applet.
APPLET ONLINE RADIO
A panel applet lets you play your favorite online radio station on your sys-
tem panel with a single click. Includes an extensive list of online radio 
stations, each with thousands of lists:
• Ice
• Radio browser
The applet should run on modern MATE Desktop and GNOME2 assets 
(e.g., RHEL 6 and all other derivatives like CentOS). On the MATE desk-
top, the applet supports building with GTK2 or GTK3. You must use the 
same version your MATE Desktop does.
Usage of Applets
When the applet starts, it loads the last radio station you listened to. Click 
on the applet to change its status from “Pause” to “Play”; click again to 
pause. The icon shows the state (playing or paused). Now, right-click the 
applet and go to the “All” menu to manage your channels.
• On the “Favorites” tab, you can add new channels (name and URL 
are required, URL includes a rule of thumb), remove existing ones, 
or start playing one. You can also rearrange the channels there. The 
list will be saved for each change.
• On the “Icecast” tab, you can download the complete Icecast direc-
tory (to be saved later), search through it, listen to the channel, or 
copy one to the favorites list.
• On the “Custom” tab you can enter your list of channels. It should 
only match the 4 most important fields of the Icecast XML format:


 Radio 1 (AAC +) 
 http:// icecast .omroep .nl /radio1 -bb -aac

When the applet launches, it will load with the latest ten channels and 
top ten favorites in two separate submenus in the right-click menu. From 
them, you can open the channel again. Note: Due to MATE/GNOME2 
restrictions, these two submenus cannot be updated automatically and 
will only change at the beginning of the applet.
When a song starts playing, a notification will display. If you do not 
want to be interrupted every few minutes, use the Options tab in the All 
Channels menu to disable notifications.
MATE MENU
It enhanced the MATE menu. It supports filtering, preferences, easy 
release, auto session, and many other features.
This menu originated from the Linux Mint distribution and was dis-
tributed to other distros that sent the MATE Desktop Environment.
It is the MATE Menu, the MintMenu fork.
• The MATE menu removes specific Mint search options.
• The MATE menu removes package management features.
MATE DESKTOP
It now has a graphic design tool called “MATE Tweak,” developed by 
Martin Wimpress, the founder and project leader of Ubuntu MATE. 
MATE Desktop is a continuation of the old GNOME 2. It provides an 
intuitive and attractive desktop environment using common Linux meta-
phors and other applications like UNIX. Ubuntu MATE is a community 
flavor of Ubuntu using MATE Desktop. It has released Ubuntu MATE 
14.04 LTS and Ubuntu MATE 14.10. MATE Tweak is a simple configura-
tion tool written in Python. It is a mint desktop fork that removes specific 
Mint configuration options.

MATE TWEAK
MATE Desktop now has a graphic design tool called “MATE Tweak,” 
developed by Martin Wimpress. The founder and project leader of Ubuntu 
MATE. MATE Desktop is a continuation of the old GNOME 2. The devel-
oper has developed packages for his Ubuntu MATE PPA, which are avail-
able for testing at Ubuntu 15.04, Ubuntu 14.10, Ubuntu 14.04, and Linux 
Mint 17.
Installation
To add a PPA and enter a MATE Tweak, press Ctrl + Alt + T and then use 
the instructions one by one.
Sudo add-apt- 
repository ppa: ubuntu-mate-dev / 
trusty-mate
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get inserting mate-tweak
Brisk Menu is an open-source menu made for the desktop Mate area, 
which is usually delivered via Solus OS as the default menu applet. However, 
Brisk has its functionality, e.g., a built-in search feature that mimics the 
original Windows menu while still providing high performance.
It has a flexible, portable UI and compresses your battery and pleasant 
memory. It does not surprise me, especially after learning that Brisk-menu 
is a collaborative activity between Solus and Ubuntu MATE.
BRISK MENU
Brisk Menu is an open-source menu made for the desktop Mate area, which 
is usually delivered via Solus OS as the default menu applet. However, 
Brisk has its functionality, e.g., a built-in search feature that mimics the 
original Windows menu while still providing high performance. It has a 
flexible, portable UI and compresses your battery and pleasant memory.
Features
• Freeware: Brisk Menu is free for anyone who uses Mate Desktop to 
download and use it
• The customizable UI is fully customizable and intuitive
• List of favorites

Linux 
Fast performance
• Hotkey menu action support
• Support for desktop actions, e.g., context menus for desktop actions 
such as open incognito mode
• Sort the application and list of files by categories
• Session controls/screen saver
• Drag and drop support when working with launchers
• Sidebar launcher support
• Beauty options are available as GTK3 + CSS style options
• The Brisk Menu developers plan to bring additional changes in the 
future, including updating the UI Settings to control other visual 
features (labels/icons/options) and improving the style of a few win-
dow sections
Add the following PPA and install Brisk Menu.
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:flexiondotorg/brisk-menu
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install mate-applet-brisk-menu
Select MATE from the menu in the display manager of your choice. 
The display manager, or login manager, is usually a visual application dis-
played at the end of the startup process instead of the default shell. There 
are different implementations for display managers, just as there are dif-
ferent types of window managers and desktop areas. There is a certain 
amount of customization and content available for each. Or, to start 
MATE with startx, enter exec mate-session in your ~ / .xinitrc file. See 
xinitrc for details, such as keeping login time.
INSTALLATION ON VARIOUS OS
Fedora Linux: The applet is now available in the RPFusion Free 
Fedora repo
