wheezy update system - how?
From time to time, my wheezy system pops up a message to the effect that I should update my system (10 packages).

There should be an orange or red star shaped icon on the Gnome panel (bottom right of screen). click it then enter the root password when prompted.

Find `update manager' in our menu system and click it to run updates. Other wise (Being in an X session is required) become root in a terminal and type `synaptic': Best bet if finding the menu item. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
