provided you are not subjected to the update notifier bug, you will
receive a steady stream of updates. If you are not receiving update
notifications, I'd suggest opening a terminal session:
Menu --> Accessories --> LXTerminal
Then issue the following command (you will be prompted for your
password). This may take a while to complete... Do NOT turn your
computer off!!!!
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
update will pull in the list of new updates, upgrade will install
them. If there are a lot of updates to be done, I'd advise doing a
reboot once they are all installed. The updates include a fix to the
update notifier :)
Phill and all:
I just wanted to comment on the above.
One of the big improvements of 14.04, is that the Software Updater
(menu...system tools...software updater) now works reliably on Lubuntu -
even on my slowest (450 megahertz) machine.
They have finally fixed that bug (that I despaired they would ever fix).
It is no longer necessary to resort to using a terminal session to
update your system.
