I'm willing to try debugging this, but any ideas on what I should look
at? Here were some places I started with (based on the earlier posts in
this thread).

I'm using 10.04, and when I run update-manager manually, it lists a
whole bunch of updates - it just never pops up (nor do I see any tray
icon).

$ ls -l /etc/cron.daily/apt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15690 2010-04-15 01:27 /etc/cron.daily/apt
