The GUIs are rarely interactive, enough. If it's going to tell me that there's updates available, I want to see a list, not just a total number. I want to click on items in that list, and find out what they are. And I want to be able to click on some items and skip them. The software install/update GUI tool on Ubuntu, annoying as it was, was far better than the one on Fedora. In the terminal, you can see it working with the server (and notice when it gets stuck part way, intervene, and kick it back into life), you can see the downloads and scroll back through the display to see something that might have gone out of view, you have far more options to use when you need more control over what it's going to do (the GUIs, typically, just give you total proceed and abort choices). And, I usually turn off the notifications of updates being available, since the only time I want to do in updates is when I'm not busy doing other things; and when those moments come up, I'll do a manual check for updates. The rest of the time, when I'm doing stuff with the computer, such pop-up notices are a nuisance. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
