I discovered this when I brought my laptop to a restaurant to grab a bite to eat and do some work - when I booted, Update Manager appeared and offered to do some updates, however none were doable. + I suggest simply delaying update manager's opening until a network + connection is available. - I suggest simply delaying update manager's opening until a network connection is available. - - ProblemType: Bug - Architecture: i386 - Date: Tue Jun 9 19:43:33 2009 - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 - NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia - Package: update-manager 1:0.121 - PackageArchitecture: all - ProcEnviron: - LANG=en_US.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash - ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.30-8.9-generic - SourcePackage: update-manager - Uname: Linux 2.6.30-8-generic i686 + <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#Launching_automatically>: + "Update Manager should launch automatically ... when the computer has + been connected to the Internet for at least one minute..."
