Re: How to get the update notifications working on a installed Fedora KDE Live CD? + wireless problems + RHGB

yum-updatesd wasn`t installed for me.
i`m not sure about puplet.. i will check that livecd to know for sure


Try using one of the vga=7xx settings in your grub.conf.


I tried that just a few minutes ago and it doesn`t seems to be working..
perhaps because i have widescreen? (1280x800)
does anyone know what the vga=??? code is for that resolution? i couldn`t
find it.

Puplet doesn't do the check; it only reports what it is told over dbus.
The check is done by the yum-updatesd service, which is configured in
/etc/yum/yum-updatesd.conf. The default check interval is 3600 seconds (1
hour). See man yum-updatesd.conf and man yum-updatesd, and find such
things with "apropos yum" (which might be hard to guess if you start from
"puplet", which has no man page).

On my FC6 system I found that yum-updatesd consumed 30 MB all the time, so
I stopped it, and free immediately showed another 30 MB of memory
available.
