Finally installed 16.04 just hours ago replacing 14.04 on my main machine (yeah, Iā€™m an old fart that still does desktops :grinning:). I do a lot in VirtualBox so added memory and disks/SSD. So far nVidia proprietary doing good.

Peripherals

2- Asus MX79H 27" IPS Monitors - I run one from DVI and the other HDMI - Cannot seem to get audio to play over HDMI
Epson WorkForce Pro - WF-4640 - works over USB, havnt had success using Wifi.
Logitec - Wireless MK710 Desktop Wireless Mouse and Keyboard - Runs great!!

Other than the few items listed above I have no other issues running this setup. Ubuntu Mate runs very fast and smooth. :grin:

Hi, New build for me from PCSpecialists. Just added a wide screen 34" monitor to top it off :slight_smile:
UEFI set to ā€œOther OSā€
Currently running Peppermint OS or Manjaro xfce or Windows 10
and of course Mate 16.04
Runs like a dream.

Only problem I face is random crash reports when trying to use Marco GPU composition or Compiz. Otherwise Ubuntu-MATE makes for a stable and fast system in this 7 year old computer.

Addendum to the note about DXX-Rebirth and the opensource NVidia drivers in my system spec post further up: the problem with the missing GLX visual was most likely caused by Multisample=1 in descent.cfg, as I had the same problem on another PC with integrated Intel graphics and it went away after changing that to Multisample=0 .

Computer 1, Mate Ubuntu 16.04 OS, Windows XP OS
Open source driver
HP Photosmart printer c 4180 all in one
Packard Bell 22-inch HDMI Monitor
Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse
HVR300 Win-TV card TV

Ubuntu Mate is very fast and stable,, is perfect

This one also has onboard Intel HD audio, but I have disabled it in favor of the SB Live, which I installed because it has an onboard synthesizer so I donā€™t need to have Fluidsynth eating any CPU cycles.
Btw. the onboard video only has a VGA output, but the image quality at 1920x1200 on my flat screen monitor is amazing - no difference to my other PC connected via DVI.

This old Dell. I added two hard drives one runs W7 the other 250G runs MATE (Iā€™m an old Ultimate Edition user so I like Gnm2 format. The AMD card uses open driver and preforms quite well. Itā€™s a dual boot dual HD basket case. Never had any problems loading or booting MATE. Hope I posted correctly.

Mate but not Ubuntu :grin: although I did arrive at Mate via a previous Ubuntu Mate install where it worked out of the box for six months while it went through system testing, Debian ended up being better for my particular workflow. Installed a few desktops but preferred mate over all the rest.

I bought this laptop mostly for astronomy image processing using PixInsight. The laptop is very fast and stable. Initially I had issues with Ubuntu Mate. The live distribution ran fine, but after installation, the system would freeze immediately after logging in. Booting into repair mode then continuing from there worked fine however. After updating to the latest NVIDIA driver, I had no further issues.
