Where is it with f16/G3?
What is "G3"?
I once saw that poor excuse of a popup at the bottom of the screen
saying something about updates available.
But if that all there is, who watches there screen all the time????
What exactly is your question?
Normal updates are being checked for less frequently than before anyway.
I don't mind if I miss the notification. I'm glad that with GNOME Shell
there is less activity in panels. The bottom panel suffers from a few bugs
currently, and e.g. finished print job notifications pile up in it.
If I want to apply updates "right now", I type "Alt+F1", "upd" and RETURN
to start the Software Update tool.
I want a constant reminder like we had in G2 (Gnome 2). I might not get
to doing the update for hours or even a day, if it is not an important
update, but I don't want to forget it. Right now, I just don't see the
update message. Since the (Dec 8), I have seen it all of once. I have
determined that there are updates by running "yum update" in a root shell.
If there are updates, I want to know about it. If they are important
bug fixes or critical security fixes I want to know that too.
This "flash in the pan" just does not do it for something that could be
really important.
Once those pop-ups appear and disappear, there's a retractable
notification bar that they retreat to. Move the cursor to the lower
right corner to raise it.
Interesting. Got to still look to see if there are any notifications.
But its progress...
It looks like the permanent-notification extension hasn't been packaged,
at least for F15.
I'm on f16.
