Current mate version:

mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.12.git81c245b.fc20.x86_64

Comment 4 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2014-01-13 14:53:33 UTC
Hmm,
here it works in f20 with mate-panel-1.6.1-4 from the menu under /system/administration/system-config-users.
A polkit popup window opened and ask you for a password.
That's normal behaviour that you need a password.
Is mate-polkit installed?

Comment 5 William Moreno 2014-01-14 04:17:07 UTC
yum install mate-keyring
Complementos cargados:langpacks
El paquete mate-keyring-1.6.0-3.fc20.x86_64 se hace obsoleto con mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.12.git81c245b.fc20.x86_64, que ya se encuentra instalado
Nada para hacer


It is suposed to don't be necesary, but I have 

[root@localhost william]# rpm -q mate-desktop
mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.12.git81c245b.fc20.x86_64

So I think it is not working :(

Comment 6 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2014-01-14 15:23:55 UTC
I think i know your problem;)
How did you installed Mate?
Using 'yum install mate-desktop' is wrong !!!
Because 'mate-desktop' isn't a meta package.
The right way for installing the Mate destop is to use
'yum groupinstall mate-desktop'
This will install all necessary packages for a working desktop.
Install instructions:

PS: mate-keyring/libmatekeyring is obsolete, mate use libsecret/gnomekeyring in f20

I install from live CD, but keep my /home

So I deleted all configuration files from past install and work fine, thanks
