sudo apt-get install raspi-config

did it for me. It was not availlable by default on my Mate-version on Raspi2. Now I can start raspi-config in order to enable SPI. TNX @Mohanad Kaleia, @Jacobm001, @hat and OP @Ralph

You have to manually edit config.txt to enable the Device Tree overlay. raspi-config is just a front end to the various configuration files.

AFAIK the SPI entry is there, but commented out (mine have been modified so many times I don't know the default).

Read the README in overlays for more detail.

This is the steps for ubuntu 18.04, maybe it will help you:

sudo echo "deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ jessie main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 7FA3303E
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install raspi-config

Why to use unsupported jessie? Doesn't it work from buster? – Ingo Sep 08 '20 at 11:20

Raspi-config is now installed on Ubuntu Mate by default. You can call it just the same as on Raspbian, and it works the same.

I know this is an old thread, but this may still be helpful to someone.
