There are three options; I have them set to check daily, to install all updates (as opposed to security updates) automatically and not to do it using mobile broadband (this is a desktop anyway). I never see a window pop up and ask if I want to update _unless_ I go to either Software Updates or Software Update and start the check manually. Then I almost always get a list of things to do, sometimes as many as 50 packages, depending how long since I last checked. So the machine is certainly not updating automatically. FWIW, I don't think an invisible update process would be desirable. Is that what "automatic" means? So far as I know, I am running Fedora 15 x86_64 with no modifications. There must be a config file somewhere: does anyone know what it is called? And for a daily check, when should the check happen - at first boot up or at a particular time of day? If the latter, what happens if the computer is turned off then? If the check is set for midnight, mine would never actually be running. That might explain a lot! -- James Bridge <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
