I have two F7 systems running. One, >a moment ago, notified me of an update being available. The other has >nothing. Puplet doesn't do the check; it only reports what it is told over dbus. The check is done by the yum-updatesd service, which is configured in /etc/yum/yum-updatesd.conf. The default check interval is 3600 seconds (1 hour). See man yum-updatesd.conf and man yum-updatesd, and find such things with "apropos yum" (which might be hard to guess if you start from "puplet", which has no man page). On my FC6 system I found that yum-updatesd consumed 30 MB all the time, so I stopped it, and free immediately showed another 30 MB of memory available. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
