hey, thanks.  I saw sudo apt-get upgrade mentioned, but I didn't know 
the two of them went together.  I thought get upgrade was to upgrade the 
system to a new version.  I've been using Linux for a number of years, 
but have never had to use Terminal and shell commands until now.  Do you 
know of a web address where I could find a good tutorial on shell commands?

I've found I can also run sudo upgrade-manager from Terminal and that 
works.  Have you guys made any progress on finding the bug that's 
killing update manager from the tray icon and the administrative menu?

Thanks again.
