Exactly my reason for this question. I believe that should occur.
However I do not "see' that activity, there is no popup screen &
I seem to be required to do it manually.
This is not any kind of rant. I just want to know what my system is
doing, by having the visual que that the popup screen provides. I
'believe' that this 'reload' is not occuring because of the time
required for the screen to open to the synaptic menue. Its damn quick to
open to the menu (about 2 seconds)& when I manually hit the reload
button it takes a few seconds (about 5 seconds)for it to finish but it
shows the activity in the popup.
Thanks!
