Hi there, just installed standard Ubuntu 20.04 LTS but thought I'd try Mate by installing via "apt-get install ubuntu-mate-desktop" rather than a clean install from an ISO.
However, the top taskbar/panel/dock is missing so I can't logout without using terminal or easily access its features including all the installed apps.
On logging into the Mate environment I did come across the error, "could not apply the stored configuration for monitors". So after doing some research, I did come across people suggesting I should delete ...monitors.xml, but after a search (including hidden files) I don't have such a file.
Also tried "mate-panel --replace", but all that did was reboot bottom panel. The top panel was still missing.
Any ideas please?
