This query may belong on some MATE list, but I cannot find one. On my 
office SL 7 with MATE, when I click on a GUI application, as it is 
loading, the GUI arrow becomes a spinning dots-within-circle.  On my 
nominally same environment on my laptop, it does not, and there is no 
"starting" indicator until the application actually appears on the GUI.  
How/where does one configure this?
