Sorry, I do not see what update-manager itself can do. It sets the
focus_on_map property to false so it requests from the WM to not get
focus. A possible workaround for xubuntu/mythubuntu could be to set the
/apps/update-notifier/auto_launch default to False in the xubuntu-
system-settings package (or something like this).

Bug description:
For Ubuntu 9.04, update-notifier behavior was changed such that update-manager 
will be automatically launched on a regular basis, but behind other 
applications.

It does this by launching "update-manager --no-focus-on-map".  On standard 
Ubuntu (using metacity), this behavior works properly.

You can manually verify by running that command in a terminal.

On Xubuntu & Mythbuntu (using xfwm4), the update manager window pops up above 
your running application.
