I actually have the same question for PackageKit (also the backend for Online Update applet?) applet.
it never offers any updates, is it only supposed to show "official" updates from updates repo? and not from other repos?
Yes it's only supposed to show patches by default - not "normal"

updates.
I think the option to show all updates, may only be supported by the zypp backend.
Personally I think it's good that the updater applet distinguishes between patches and random package updates that are likely to break things. People should use zypper dup for factory upgrades anyway.
hmm...ok..so I won't be notified about updates from build service repos then!? If I want to follow the latest KDE after 11.2 is released for example I have to manually check for updates using zypper up? Personally I think it should offer all available updates. It doesn't make sense that I have make use of several tools to update my system, especially when there is the build service that builds against 11.2. If I add a repo, I want to be notifed about updates from the repo.
Ah, is that what I am not doing right, "zypper dup". OK, I'll try it first thing tomorrow. Thanks.
