The following is a list of known issues with MATE on Slackware:

libgksu doesn't work anymore on Slackware 14.1 (and eventually -Current).
Possible workaround is to switch to root user using normal "su -" command.

the directories in Firefox. Fixes for this have been committed to xdg-utils
package, but we must set the xdg-mime entries manually.
upstream development in Git but for now, we must apply a patch to xdg-open and
add some xdg-mime default handlers.
As your regular user, first back up the following file:
First, as a root user, back up /usr/bin/xdg-open and then apply the
xdg-open.patch from msb/testing/xdg-utils:
patch -p0 /usr/bin/xdg-open < /location/of/xdg-open.patch
Then, as your regular user, first back up the following file:
$HOME/.local/share/applications/defaults.list and then enter the next two
commands in a terminal to set the default handler:
