mate and ubuntu is like comparing apples to oranges. Ubuntu is an operating system and mate is a desktop manager two different things entirely. Actually, you can download a ubuntu-mate iso and install that if you like. Unity gnome mate X11 blackbox metacity enlightenment kde qt are all desktop managers. Debian, ubuntu archlinux blackarch mint antergos fedora are all operating systems.

Saves a lot of headaches down the road. On 28/12/2018 23:03, James via orca-list wrote:Hi folks, Well I am a step closer to making the almost full time switch to Linux. I have created a bootable USB of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. However, I am wondering if Ubuntu MATE or Debian would be a better choice to begin with. I have figured out how to read HTML help with Orca but not how to read the keyboard shortcuts for Gedit. Using object navigation (if that is the correct term for Orca's numberpad functionality) yields no results. Anyway, next step is to partition my drives as I? will still ned Windows for work. Looking forward to the journey.
