I've just installed RH8.0 and did a little Internet work. I notice that the right-bottom of the screen has an indicator that my system needs to be updated. I assumed that this is somewhat the same as the Windows update service that my XP system does pretty much automatically, for security patches and such. So I told it to sure, update, and after a few gyrations it looks like there is about 39MB worth of update material! I don't really want to try and download that much with a slow modem. What are they updating? The RPM's? The running system? What? And does this update service cease after 30 days (unless I want to pay for it)? Anyone know?
