The terminal commands to update are: $ sudo apt-get update Then $ sudo apt-get upgrade If new files are to be installed, like new Linux kernels, the upgrade command is $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Finally, if you want more control over your software updating (a GUI to see various connections and sources, try Synaptic) $ sudo apt-get install synaptic I have a brief mention of synaptic in my review of Xubuntu 18.04 at https://linuxatty.wordpress.com/2018/07/23/review-galago-pro-from-system-76-and-xubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver/ - Victor -- -- Victor Forberger vforber...@fastmail.fm blog: http://linuxatty.wordpress.com
