Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-notifier

I've been running Jaunty since Alpha 3 on my eeepc 900 and have not yet
seen update-manager appear in the background. What I *have* been seeing
in my workflow is my session disappear every few days on resume (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-
intel/+bug/322202). Note that I rarely logout or reboot (just suspend /
resume).

I'm filing this under update-notifier since I suspect that is what is
driving this new process.

Last night I got tired of waiting for the update notification to get
"fixed" and found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-
xorg-video-intel/+bug/322202.

Putting my feelings aside on that issue I'm wondering if I'm hitting a
scenario that the update-manager devs will never see due to the normal
development / testing process (e.g. they don't go several days in a row
with suspend-resume cycles and no logoff or reboot).

SUGGESTIONS:
1) Have update-notifier (I'm assuming that is what pops up update-manager in 
the new world) log what it is doing so that these activities can be coorlated 
with the loss of session problem.
2) Start pushing update-notifier / update-manager daily as "security" updates 
until shortly (1 week) before release to get more milage / testing on the new 
update notification mechanism.

If this behavior is already logged please point me to what to look for
and I'll try and add more detail to this bug. Thanks!
