Title: Lite widget does not notice the updates
Post by: TMG1961 on May 27, 2017, 08:58:49 AM

The Lite widget keeps saying that last update was 8 days ago. But the laptop is updated.

The Lite Widget keeps aying that it is 9 days since last update. But when i run updates there arent any, so why keeps the Lite Widget telling me that the last time the laptop was updated was 9 days ago?

The Help Manual explains this. 9 days ago was when your computer last got update packages. Next time update packages are available and installed, the status will change.

Under Customize. I'll give you some commands later to perform additional checks.

In a Terminal:

Code: [Select]

killall -9 conky

Code: [Select]

bash -c "sleep 5; ~/.conky/start"
Let it run for 10 minutes then paste the output here.
