Lite Updates Notify
Coastie:
OK. I tried the commands and the notifications showed up. I reset notifications from 5 to 10 seconds so I will see if it will do it own its on tomorrow. Deja Dup back up is set to daily and I always see the notifications. Can Notify be set in autostart to show if LL is up to date at start up?

Ok guys, let's help each other here to figure it out. First, let's be clear about how Lite Updates Notify works:
https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/software.html#updatesnotify
--- Quote ---Lite Updates Notify will check for new updates on shcedule as defined by the user. If no new updates are available since the last time updates were installed in the system, Lite Updates Notify will notify that the system is up to date, once. No further notifications are displayed up until new updates become available once again.
--- End quote ---
--- Quote ---To customize how notifications appear on your screen, see Menu, All Settings, Notifications to define notifications theme, timeout, position on the screen and opacity. You must restart the session (logout and login) for notifications settings to take effect.
--- End quote ---
A quick way to check whether Lite updates notify is working in your system as it should:
Terminal:
--- Code: ---sudo rm /usr/local/sbin/.updnotify
bash /usr/local/sbin/updatesnotify-launcher (Notification, your system is up to date should pop up ONCE)
bash /usr/local/sbin/updatesnotify-launcher (No notification should pop-up the second time)
--- End code ---
Repeat all 3 commands to test over again.

I've seen it a couple times.. Its tricky as the message is brief. It's a popup (upper right corner for me) lasts only a couple of seconds then goes away. Having been up at midnight past couple nights I have seen it :)
Perhaps setting to the "hourly" mark you may catch it :)
Not sure if this would work, don't see why not - set hourly then manually change clock to a couple minutes before the next hour and wait... 8) 8)
It's brief - As when you boot a laptop and it connects to WiFi the popup only last for a few, same way...
Perhaps having the message appear and stay until clicked on to hide??

The update notifier is not working for me either. I have set it a couple of times for once day but it never gives me notifications. I continue to check daily manually by Install Updates which finds updates but I do not get notifications from the new app. No big deal. I wait for an update to fix it.

Thanks for the reminder.
