Dear ubuntu community,

I just upgraded a freshly installed ubuntu 15.04 to 15.10 (wily werewolf) and installed additionally the MATE desktop environment using the following command as described in this article:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-mate-desktop

Everything seemed to work: After boot I see the MATE login screen but after login Unity is loaded. Even after removing MATE desktop again, the login screen stays MATE-style.

Is it even possible to install MATE additionally to Unity and choose between these two at login time? Is there something I am missing here?

Thanks for your time!

I just made it in reverse: First installed ubuntu MATE freshly, then installed Unity additionally via:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

This seems to work. So if you aim to install MATE and Unity alongside, I'd recommend to do it this way. ;)
