Folks,
shortly after F28 was released I upgraded one of my systems to F28
using fedup. Since that day, despite all the updates I have installed,
I still cannot run the MATE desktop on that system. Before the upgrade,
when the system ran F27, I ran MATE without any problems. Now as soon
as I login I get a screen that is completely messed up :-(. However, if
instead of the MATE desktop I select the Gnome Classic desktop, it
appears just fine and I can use it. This problem with F28 and MATE does
not affect just this one system, I upgraded a second system and created
to F28 VMs, one under VirtualBox and one under VMware. Of these 4 F28
systems, the only one that is usable with the MATE desktop is the VM
under VirtualBox.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the problem? As I said
this worked fine under F27.
I am reluctant to upgrade my 2 primary systems until this issue is resolved.
Here's the output of lspci.
