18.04 Mate top panel double trouble
Ok, been using Gnome in 18.04, but I wanted some of that good old Unity again. So, I installed Mate-desktop. It works ok until it does not work.
Sometimes when I log in, and especially after I log out and log back in I get double everything - two indicators, two menus, and two brisk-menus and two trash bins.
It is a terrible experience. How can this be prevented? I very much would like to use Mate.
Thanks!

Consider to reset panel settings with
To be completely sure reset permissions on all dot-folders with
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.[a-zA-Z]*
Open MATE Terminal and reset MATE Panel settings with
dconfby
dconf reset -f /org/mate/panel/
Open MATE Tweak (
mate-tweak) again and select Mutiny layout.
Relaunch MATE Panel with
killall mate-panel
mate-panel --replace &
or logout and login again.
Notes:
1. I tested this method on clean installation of Ubuntu MATE 18.04.1 LTS.
2. You can remove GNOME-related stuff as mentioned in my other answer but it is dangerous.
