Re: reboot after updates (dbus & hal)??? what is this windows???

Around 01:37pm on Saturday, December 02, 2006 (UK time), oldman scrawled:

I guess this is the price we pay to make linux more grandma friendly,
but maybe items like this could be dependent upon some switch somewhere
(an "Expert" switch? or an "Easy" button)

Am I correct in thinking that if I disable the yum_updatesd service, and
set a regular cron job to do a "yum update", things can be returned to a
situation where updates are carried out without user intervention, e.g.
on servers where the X window system isn't installed. (I know that this
won't reboot after kernel updates, etc.)

Cheers

Steve
