Current mate version: mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.12.git81c245b.fc20.x86_64
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?
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 :(
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 Install instructions: http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/download#fedora PS: mate-keyring/libmatekeyring is obsolete, mate use libsecret/gnomekeyring in f20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
