How to see the details which updates are installed, confirm and possiby uncheck unwished updates, as well as seeing the elapsed time bar?
2) YOU (Gnome) The new YOU interface includes recommended patches and optional updates (not more than the Updater does as far as I can see).
How to check for and upgrade to other, newer software versions for All Packages?
So far in 10.3 as a workaround I've had to install and login to a KDE session instead, to do what previous worked in Gnome as well: YaST2>Software>Online Update Package menu>All packages>Update if newer versions are available

1.I agree that the updater needs to show the status of downloading packages, and a list of what it's downloading. Perhaps that what they can use the "Details" button for, rather than launching the whole YaST module.
2. I'm not sure what you're talking about, but somebody else probably will :)
2) As an example: Just now, my Gnome Updater applet icon looks like an orange sun icon. Opening it, it tells there is 1 single update available. As already said, it isn't possible to verify which package this update is for. Quitting the Updater without doing that update, and starting YOU instead YaST2>Software>Online Update This just open the new Gnome Patch Selector window. Remarkable this windows is empty, showing that it obviously doesn't include 3rd party updates. There is no menu or toolbar on this Patch selector to look for possibly other updates for "All packages". Logout from Gnome and doing a login to KDE and start YOU from there instead YaST2>Software>Online Updates selecting Package menu>All packages>Update if newer versions are available This shows 4 updates and which packages they count for. This time, just 2 of them could be installed do to dependices conflicts. Yesterday I found 74 updates in KDE YOU. --Terje -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
