Here is my biggest annoyance with updates: I get usually asked about them right after I start the computer and have other important things to do. I check the total size and if it is small enough, I apply it but if is large (for example including an openoffice.org update), I postpone the update, as I need the full bandwidth (for cheeking mails, reading news, whatever). Good thing we have Delta RPMS, and the size is usually much smaller than reported... If the update needs a restart, I *never* do it right away: I started the computer because I have things to do with it, not waste a couple of minutes with a reboot. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
