Thanks for your feedback. Because update-manager is a GUI application it needs 
an xserver and the environment variable DISPLAY determines how it should 
connect to that server. There is no DISPLAY set by default on a tty and 
update-manager is not intended to be launched from a tty unless you know what 
you are doing. 
So I'm closing this report because it's not a bug in Ubuntu. Thanks.

** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
