Previously with the Apper service I could stop that in KDE's System Services control. I've stopped and unticked that service again but this applet still pops up on reboot and seems independent. Its only configuration on a right-click is for setting a keyboard shortcut.
I could hide it from the system tray but presumably that won't stop it running in the background. I do my updates in YaST and until the day I can get all the same functionality and level of detail in an applet then things shall remain that way. Though this applet finds and notifies of updates, clicking the + symbol next to any item always fails to retrieve further details, so it is redundant for me.
Where can I turn it off?
Hello Peter,
Go to Configure Desktop / Apper Software Management.
Toolbar right side there's a Settings button, click that.
There select the Check for update policies.
Okay thanks. That seems a nonsensical implementation though. It means the Apper service is running even though I've disabled it from doing so in the System Services control.

You mean Apper Monitor in the Startup Services ? I guess that's just the notifier part of the system and packagekit still starts up but you won't get notified by the Updater Appplet. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
