Wow! Great suggestions I'll check if it happens again and report it. Will 
probably make an account for her seems the easiest. Thanks!

Sounds plausible. I would file a bug. I don't think anything should
pop over a video whether flash or local media.

Alternatives include:-

* Setting your wife to not be an administrator so she never gets the
update notifications
* Install apticron to email you when updates are available
* Set update manager to check less regularly for updates, or
autodownload and install updates.

[ubuntu-uk] Updates interupt film

2012-05-03 Thread Andres Muniz
My wife claims this happened to her: she was watching a web video on full 
screen mode and the ubuntu updater took her out of full screen mode and set 
it's self on top of the web page.
Has this happened to anybody else? 
Sadly this happened one day after i praised  how little invasive updates on 
ubuntu compared to windows. (The little wiggle effect on the launch bar had 
ammused her.) So she told me "This is way worst than the annoying bubble on the 
bottom right(...)"--
