No, I do not use Mint/MATE.  I have tried and failed.  I can't render it 
properly visible.  How on earth am I supposed to type out and send a bug 
report?  I have told you what my initial and main problem was, and suggested 
that you should report it.  Have you done so?

I try to.  When Timothy asked me to report a bug I immediately did so.

This is becoming ad hominem and very unpleasant.  Also totally unmerited.  I 
have tried to give you reasons, entirely rational ones, both for my dislike 
of MATE and for my liking for TDE.

What help do you think that I do not give to projects I do use that I ought to 
give them?  I do try quite hard to contribute within the limits of my 
ability.
