Mate configuration error

I have disabled the Places Menu in the Panel, i disabled it from dconf-editor

The problem is: Everytime that i disable it, it appears again when i reboot.

The only solution that i have actually is this:

sleep 10
gsettings set org.mate.panel.menubar show-places false

It's a script that is runned at the startup. The problem is, that i have to use the "sleep" option 'cause it starts before Mate and i have to wait until it booted completely, that's why i use the "sleep 10".

So i want:
a) A way to set the Places disabled permanently.
b) If it isn't possible (or no one knows), a way to run the "gsettings set org.mate.panel.menubar show-places false" command AFTER Mate started. It doesn't work from the Startup Applications in the Settings

Sorry for the bad english, spanish speaker here

Re: Mate configuration error

To bring attention back to a thread please try to provide more information rather than bumping the thread.   Sadly, I know nothing of Mate so I cannot help you.  Apparently, no one else seems to either.    I see you did edit the original post, so maybe you provided more information without my being aware of it.

Re: Mate configuration error

A gsettings override might work in this case.

Create a file like the following: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/mate-panel-places.override
With the following content:

[org.mate.panel.menubar]
show-places=false

Once you've create the file run

# glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
