If you run Update Manager, it will check for updates every day, 2 days, week or 2 weeks, depending on what you set in Preferences. When it checks it updates the same files that Synaptic uses for Reload. It will pop up an icon in your notification area to let you know about any updates available and you can click on it to see them and install them. I use both Update Manager and Synaptic. They can't both be run at the same time, but Update Manager can be active and idle in the notification area and you can use Synaptic.On Mon, 2012-06-25 at 15:40 +0000, Camaleón wrote:On Mon, 25 Jun 2012 09:28:07 -0500, John W.

I do not 'see' this happening now. It may be doing it but I don't know for sure, since it only pops up the download window when I key it to update manually. Any suggestions? frosty EP |
