If you want to check for updates, try "yum check-update" instead.
Which takes several minutes to complete (fetch new information, and
parse local files, etc.). Yet RHN would let you know in a few seconds
that there were some updates, and would only go through the long process
of working out what, *if* you wanted to follow it up.
I miss that aspect of RHN.
The RHN alert icon is on the panel for me by default. All it takes is a
few seconds to configure it and it works to do exactly what you suggest.
