Synaptic updates

#1 Post by Toastrack »

How frequently does synaptic check for updates, and is there any way of controlling the frequene of this on MX 11?

Hopefully MX11 was a typo?

Synaptic doesn't check until you open it and click 'Mark All Upgrades'.

MX Updater checks at a random time. Details can be found by right-clicking the Updater icon and selecting 'MX Updater Help'.

Thank you, that has explained it all.
And, yes, it was a typo, should have been MX16.
