The MATE Desktop Environment is the continuation of GNOME 2. It provides 
an intuitive and attractive desktop environment using traditional 
metaphors for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems.

To run the MATE desktop, install the mate-session-manager package and 
its dependencies, and either use the provided Start Menu shortcut, or:

echo "/usr/bin/dbus-launch mate-session" > $HOME/.xinitrc

and run 'startx' from the Cygwin prompt to launch.
